(engineering/math model).Engineers work with each of these models as they develop their understanding of a concept orsolve a particular problem. Reality is the way the world actually works; in general, reality tendsto be complex. The engineer works to shape reality, and therefore, must be a student of reality,learning how the world works through thoughtful observation. As engineers consider reality,they build mental models of how the world works. The mental model is qualitative and oftenintuitive. The mental model is the single greatest asset an engineer has; in the qualitative andintuitive world of the mind creativity flourishes. An engineer who wishes to communicate orrefine a mental model will draw sketches or diagrams. The mental model should lead
