Outcomes and Assessment
Students will
demonstrate understanding of basic concepts of design and
mechanical engineering needed for building models of
machines which move. Assessment: Machines work, and
students can explain how they work.
- Students will formulate and
ask questions to aid in problem solving that will enable
the students to build the type of models that they
envision grounded in the scientific processes.
Assessment: Student journals, teacher observation.
- Students will demonstrate and
communicate their understanding of motion and machinery.
Assessment: explaining their designs/ projects through
writing, site-based presentations and /or video
conferencing.
- students will demonstrate the
skills to troubleshoot and problem solve using analysis,
inferrence, and data collection to make sense of
seemingly disparate information. Assessment: Student
reflection, teacher observation.
- Students will display a
culminating project during science fair which will draw
on the learning and knowledge base developed across the
entire school year.
- Students will be able to write
and utilize LOGO programming to control their robotics
model. (Year 2)
