IED Unit 5 • Lesson 5.13
Data Analysis and Stakeholder Feedback Review
Focus question: How can engineers combine data and user feedback to decide what should improve?
Your lesson guide
Objective
Summarize test data and user feedback. Identify patterns, strengths, weaknesses, and conflicts in the evidence. Select revision priorities based on evidence.
Materials
For the online work: a browser and your engineering notebook. Follow the activity’s materials list for any physical build, and get teacher approval before using equipment.
Plan your time
Suggested work block: 45–60 minutes. Physical builds and projects may span several classes; follow your teacher’s schedule.
Mission Briefing
Today’s Plan
Use this page with the lesson presentation, your engineering notebook, and the tools or evidence assigned for Combine Data and Stakeholder Feedback.
Success Looks Like

Opening Prompt
How can engineers combine data and user feedback to decide what should improve?
Connect your response to the decision, evidence, or quality standard required for Combine Data and Stakeholder Feedback.
Reveal: useful engineering move
This lesson is ready to move forward when the evidence meets this standard: Revision priorities are based on combined evidence and do not overvalue one isolated comment or trial.
Core Skill
What We Are Practicing
Data and feedback should be reviewed together.
Revision priorities should focus on the most important user need or performance issue.
A good design conclusion names both strengths and limitations.
Your Task
Combine Data and Stakeholder Feedback
Analyze quantitative results and qualitative feedback together to identify strengths, weaknesses, and revision priorities.
- Organize the performance data and feedback themes.
- Calculate or graph the required test results.
- Compare the evidence with each design criterion and user need.
- Rank the most important revision opportunities.
Quality check: Revision priorities are based on combined evidence and do not overvalue one isolated comment or trial.
Lesson Interactive
Combine Data and Stakeholder Feedback
Use quantitative results and repeated user comments to identify the revision that addresses the strongest evidence.
Evidence summary
- Reliability: 19 successful cycles out of 20 — target ≥ 18/20
- Setup time: 35 s mean — target ≤ 20 s
- Comfort: 3 of 5 users rated the grip comfortable — target ≥ 4/5
- Repeated comment: “The handle is hard to grasp with gloves.”
Find the metric that misses its target and connect it to the repeated stakeholder comment.
What You Will Submit

Checkpoint: is your evidence ready?
- Check calculations, units, labels, and measurements against the activity requirements.
- Record what actually happened, including unexpected results.
- Explain what you changed and why; attach required drawings, photos, CAD, or code in your classroom assignment.
Submit the evidence specified in the activity and your classroom assignment. The report below collects your notes, calculations, observations, and reflections; attach any required drawings, photos, CAD, or code separately.
A PDF download is not a submission. Review it, then upload it and any required attachments through your classroom assignment system.
