SC4-7WS processes and analyses data from a first-hand investigation and secondary sources to identify trends, patterns and relationships, and draw conclusions WS7.1 Students process data and information by: a. summarising data from students' own investigations and secondary sources e. applying simple numerical procedures, eg calculating means when processing data and information, as appropriate WS7.2 Students analyse data and information by: d. using scientific understanding to identify relationships and draw conclusions based on students' data or secondary sources
TECHNOLOGY 4.2.1 generates and communicates creative design ideas and solutions 4.2.2 selects, analyses, presents and applies research and experimentation from a variety of sources 4.5.2 produces quality solutions that respond to identified needs and opportunities in each design project MATHEMATICS 1) MA4-1WM Communicates and connects mathematical ideas using appropriate terminology, diagrams and symbols 2) MA4-2WM Applies appropriate mathematical techniques to solve problems 3) MA4-3WM Recognises and explains mathematical relationships using reasoning SCIENCE SC4-5WS collaboratively and individually produces a plan to investigate questions and problems Communication methods including- digital presentations. Research methods-searching techniques including use of the Internet. Experimentation and testing of design ideas. Suitable materials, tools and techniques for design projects. 1-3) Mathematics Skills at Working Mathematically WS5.1 Students identify data to be collected in an investigation by: a. identifying the purpose of an investigation b. proposing the type of information and data that needs to be collected in a range of investigation types, including and secondary sources c. locating possible sources of data and information, including secondary sources, relevant to the investigation Module 11: Task: Student technical research Instructions: 1. Students are to continue researching their ideas concerned with their robot. 2. Students are to complete the technical research task consider the type of robot they want, how the robot is to be controlled, what movements options are necessary for the robot to carry out its designed purpose, power source and materials. This information will help them complete their robot profiles. 3. Students may want to video part of their discussions to include in their video presentation. Success checklist: 1. Complete technical research worksheet 2. Our group is exploring different design ideas for the robot, including: its function method of movement power source Materials 3. Interact and use the material science games to apply your understanding of material properties.
WS9 Students communicate by: a. presenting ideas, findings and solutions to problems using scientific language and representations using digital technologies as appropriate b. using appropriate text types in presentations, including a discussion, explanation, exposition, procedure and recount c. using a recognised method to acknowledge sources of data and information d. constructing and using a range of representations to honestly, clearly and/or succinctly present data and information including diagrams, keys, models, tables, drawings, images, flowcharts, spreadsheets and databases e. constructing and using the appropriate type of graph (histogram, column, sector or line graph) to express relationships clearly and succinctly, employing digital technologies as appropriate
TECHNOLOGY 4.2.1 generates and communicates creative design ideas and solutions 4.6.1 applies appropriate evaluation techniques throughout each design project SCIENCE SC4-8WS selects and uses appropriate strategies, understanding and skills to produce creative and plausible solutions to identified problems SC4-9WS presents science ideas, findings and information to a given audience using appropriate scientific language, text types and representations Communication methods including: digital presentations • communication methods suitable for specific Audiences including: technical experts peers • using ICTs to plan, develop and document design projects Final evaluation considering: design process used, design solutions and reflection on learning WS8 Students solve problems by: a. using identified strategies to suggest possible solutions to a familiar problem b. describing different strategies that could be employed to solve an identified problem with a scientific component c. using scientific knowledge and findings from investigations to evaluate claims d. using cause and effect relationships to explain ideas and findings e. evaluating the appropriateness of different strategies for solving an identified problem Module 21: Task: Display video log and final robot in video/ response to design brief/benefits of their model for design situation Task" submit assignment 2 Teacher panel final feedback on robot Instructions: 1. Each group has a time limit of 5 minutes to demonstrate their final robot with their video log outlining the major steps in production and addressing the design brief, (answering if their robot is functional for its intended purpose, safe, visually appealing and comfortable) . Also mention major problems and their possible solutions. Success checklist: Have you... Demonstrated your final robot with your video log Submitted assignment 2
