- Q1What is a common characteristic of engineers when developing solutions?They only work independently.They rely solely on their first ideas.They evaluate their solutions thoroughly.They avoid testing their prototypes.30s
- Q2How many times do engineers typically test their prototypes before finding a successful design?Only once.Four to six times or more.Ten times or more.Once or twice.30s
- Q3What often leads to better products according to the video?Learning from failures.Relying on luck.Using outdated technology.Ignoring past mistakes.30s
- Q4What should you do the next time you face a challenge and fail?Ignore the issue.Give up immediately.Stop working on that project.Try again after evaluating what went wrong.30s
- Q5What do engineers often ask during their review process?What was the easiest part?What worked well and what didn't?How quickly can we finish?Who else was involved?30s
- Q6Why do engineers fail many times before succeeding?To make the process longer.To avoid testing their prototypes.To confuse their competitors.To enhance their designs and solutions.30s
- Q7What mindset should one adopt when experiencing failure according to the video?Avoid trying that again.Completely change your approach.Stay angry about the failure.Don't feel too bad and keep trying.30s
