14 Grades 6-8 STEM APPENDIX As part of our district s commitment to the Next Generation Standards, Briarcliff Middle School students will have numerous experiences in engineering design. The goal for our middle school students is to define problems more precisely, to conduct a more thorough process of choosing the best solution, and to optimize the final design. (Next Generation Science Standards: Engineering Design.) Connections with other science disciplines help students develop these capabilities in various contexts. For example, in the life sciences students apply their engineering design capabilities to evaluate plans for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services (MS-LS2-5). In the physical sciences students define and solve problems involving a number of core ideas in physical science, including: chemical processes that release or absorb energy (MS-PS1-6), Newton s third law of motion (MS-PS2-1), and energy transfer (MS-PS3-3). In the Earth and space sciences students apply their engineering design capabilities to problems related the impacts of humans on Earth systems (MS-ESS3-3). Our teachers and administrators will use the following indicators by to create new STEM/Engineering assignments for our Briarcliff students: MS-ETS1 Engineering Design Students who demonstrate understanding can: MS-ETS1-1. Define the criteria and constraints of a design problem with sufficient precision to ensure a successful solution, taking into account relevant scientific principles and potential impacts on people and the natural environment that may limit possible solutions. MS-ETS1-2. Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem. MS-ETS1-3. Analyze data from tests to determine similarities and differences among several design solutions to identify the best characteristics of each that can be combined into a new solution to better meet the criteria for success. MS-ETS1-4. Develop a model to generate data for iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process such that an optimal design can be achieved.
