Making Tough Decisions with Pugh Charts in Neuroprosthetics
When faced with tough decisions in neuroprosthetics, utilizing Pugh Charts can streamline the process. By allowing engineers to rank design plans based on criteria such as cost, taste, and strength of caffeine, resources can be efficiently allocated to the most viable solutions. Pre-reading, practice activities, and peer reviews further enhance team collaboration and decision-making in this specialized field.

Neuroprosthetics Analyzing Solutions Pugh Charts
How do you make tough decisions? Team ideas (Who is going to answer for your team?) Engineers Use Pugh Charts Allow engineers to rank their design plans Pugh Charts That way they do not waste resources on designs that may not have worked.
The solutions/designs are the column headings How to use a Pugh Chart The criteria for the solutions/designs are on row headings Best place for Coffee Cost Taste Strength of Caffeine Wait Time Total: Starbucks McDonalds Gas Station You rank each criteria for that solution (usually 0-3, 0 being lowest) 0 3 3 2 2 2 3 2 3 Total each solution at the bottom; which had the highest score? 1 7 2 3 10 11 That is your choice why might you not go with the Pugh Chart choice?
PracticePre-Read Read the Pugh Chart Student Practice Instructions with your partner. Keep track of your questions. Share your questions with your teammates.
Practice Page 1 Any questions about the activity? 10 minutes to complete page 1 Share your vehicle results with your teammates Make any notes to your sheet when review in class Flip paper over and work on the Team Design (do not do Peer Review)
Peer Review Intro Within your team, pick a Writer. Writer, pick an object for the rest of your team to draw. Your teammates will not know what this object will be and will have to sketch it based upon your written instructions. Writers: Write instructions for your team to follow Rest of Team: Review your work on the Project so for: What is your solutions? Do you have inputs, outputs, subsystems, feedback? What is your main vocab? What is your brain , computer , and interface
Peer Review Intro Writer: Share your instructions Discussion questions: How similar/different were the sketches? 1. Rest of team: Sketch out the object using the instructions. Was it easy to draw the object? 2. Writer: Share with your teammates what the object is. Was it easy giving directions? 3. Rest of team: Show your sketch to your team. How would you change the instructions? 4.
Giving Good Directions/Advice Peer Review Use Peer Review to provide feedback, advice, and lend support to data Engineers and Scientists: Fundamental part of science Clear Good Review Needs to be: Detailed To the point (simple) CSC: Compliment Suggest Correct
Compliment Suggest Correct Something lacking from the work. Know what is good and not to change Errors within the work (language or content) Have you thought about I noticed that I like it when you I would have worded it like This is good because... This made me think of This helped me to OK to correct grammar, spelling, etc. without comment I would suggest adding in
Peer Review Practice Now complete the Peer Review Practice on page 2 of the worksheet Review what your teammate wrote. Turn in your worksheet Exit Ticket: 1 to 1 to 1 1. One way you can use Pugh Charts in your non-science class life 2. One way to use Pugh Charts for your Neuroprosthetics problem 3. One way to use Peer Review (CSC) in your Neuroprosthetics problem
Teacher Directions for the evening. This evening: 1. Review Pugh Chart Practice worksheet for Pugh Chart: Just do a simple check. Could the students create a Pugh chart with their team? If not, you will need to re-teach. 2. Review Pugh Chart Practice worksheet for Peer Review: Just do a simple check to see that all comments are appropriate. Address any inappropriate comments the next day. 3. Exit Ticket: 1-1-1 Could the students relate Pugh Charts and Peer Review to their overall problem? If not, do some direct instruction the next day.
