| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Science | systematic study of building and organizing knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe |
| Technology | making, modification, usage, & knowledge of tools, machines, techniques, crafts, systems, & ways of organization, to solve a problem, improve an existing solution to a problem, achieve a goal, handle an applied i/o relation or perform a specific function |
| Engineering | application of scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge, in order to design, build, and maintain structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes |
| Math | abstract study of topics encompassing quantity, structure, space, change, and other properties |
| Artificial Intelligence | ability of machines and robots to acquire knowledge and the branch of computer science that aims to create it |
| Autonomous | perform desired tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance |
| Computer | general purpose device that can be programmed to carry out a finite set of arithmetic or logical operations |
| Drone | vehicle that operates without an onboard human presence |
| UAV | Unmanned Aerial Vehicle |
| UGV | Unmanned Ground Vehicle |
| Machine | tool that consists of one or more parts, and uses energy to achieve a particular goal |
| Robot | a mechanical or virtual artificial agent, usually an electronically operated mechanical machine that is guided by a computer program or electronic circuitry |
| Inquiry | process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem |
| Hypotheses | proposed explanation for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it |
| Scientific Method | procedure that is used to characterize natural science, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses |
| Experimentation | methodical procedure carried out with the goal of verifying, falsifying, or establishing the validity of a hypothesis |
| Continuous Learning | ability to constantly develop and improve one’s skills and knowledge in order to perform effectively and adapt to changes in the workplace |
| Continuous Improvement | ongoing effort to make products, services, or processes better |
| Data | values of qualitative or quantitative variables, belonging to a set of items |
| Dependent Variable | output or effect, or is tested to see if it is the effect |
| Independent Variable | inputs or causes, or are tested to see if they are the cause |
| Phenomena | any event that is observable, however common it might be, even if it requires the use of instrumentation to observe, record, or compile data concerning it |
| Histogram | a graph that uses one axis for frequency and the other axis for equal intervals of value |
| Fulcrum | the support about which a lever pivots |
| Trajectory | the path that a moving object follows through space as a function of time |
| Kinetic Energy | the energy which an object possesses due to its motion |
| Potential Energy | the energy of an object or a system due to the position of the body or the arrangement of the particles of the system |
| Silo Thinking | occurs when individuals or groups within an organization do not want to share information or knowledge with other individuals or groups in the same organization |
| Sub-Optimization | where a process, procedure, or system yields less than the best possible outcome or output, caused by a lack of best possible coordination between different components, elements, parts, etc. |
