Students will launch the tiny home wiring challenge by spotting hazards, analyzing a resident profile, and testing a first quick layout with code cards so they can frame the problem in terms of safety, access, and daily living needs.

Students will define the tiny home wiring problem through resident needs, measurable criteria, and NEC-based constraints; research symbols and layout patterns; and assemble a design brief that prepares them to generate and test wiring concepts in the next phase.

Students will turn their design brief into tested wiring solutions by sketching multiple tiny home layouts, comparing options with a weighted decision matrix, selecting and justifying one plan, building a rapid cardboard or paper prototype, and collecting hazard-check data that will guide revision in the next phase.

Students will analyze prototype test results, make evidence-based revisions to their tiny home wiring layouts, retest with the same criteria and code checks, document trade-offs and improvements, and prepare a stakeholder walkthrough that explains how their design better meets safety, efficiency, and resident needs.

Students will present their final tiny home wiring plans to an authentic audience, explain code-based and resident-centered design decisions with evidence from testing and revision, gather feedback from visitors and peers, and complete a closing reflection on technical growth, teamwork, and professional communication.
