What are the steps for FPS?

Answer 1

STEP 1:

• what is the challenge?
• why is it a challenge?
• how does it relate to the future scene?
• use words like may, might, and could.
• use research to support your ideas.
• categories (18): use each only ONCE.

STEP 2:

• conditions: restate step 1 and summarize
• stem: how might we OR in what ways might we
• KVP: key verb phrase (only ONE)
• purpose: your goal (only ONE)
• parameters: date, topic, location
• no conjunctions ("so that" is ok) use prepositions when more information is needed

STEP 3:

• who will do the solution?
• what will be done?
• refer to KVP
• refer to purpose
• how will it work?
• why will it solve the underlying problem?
• use words like will, would, and should
• categories (18): use as many as you can

STEP 4:

• create criteria for the solutions
• "which solution will..."

STEP 5:

• rate your best solutions (step 3's) with the criteria from step 4
• MAKE SURE YOU ADD RIGHT!!!

STEP 6:

• include:
• • elaboration of solution that had the highest score (step 5)
  • criteria the solution scored high on and tell why
  • why is this solution humane? (be sure to include the word "humane")
  • any obstacles in choosing this solution (be careful not to have too many large obstacles because then it was not a very good solution) and how to solve/avoid these obstacles
