multiple reviews to ensure the materials meet the GETSI materials rubric which codifies best practices in curricular development, student assessment and pedagogic techniques.real in-class or field camp/course testing of materials in multiple courses with external review of student assessment data.multiple iterative reviews and feedback cycles through the course of material development with input to the authoring team from both project editors and an external assessment team.team-based development to ensure materials are appropriate across multiple educational settings.This rigorous, structured process includes: This material was developed and reviewed through the GETSI curricular materials development process. Plate movements are responsible for most continental and ocean-floor features and for the distribution of most rocks and minerals within Earth’s crust. Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions: Plate tectonics is the unifying theory that explains the past and current movements of the rocks at Earth’s surface and provides a framework for understanding its geologic history. Patterns: Empirical evidence is needed to identify patterns. Patterns: Mathematical representations are needed to identify some patterns HS-C1.4: Stability and Change: Change and rates of change can be quantified and modeled over very short or very long periods of time. HS-P6.1:Īnalyzing and Interpreting Data: Analyze data using tools, technologies, and/or models (e.g., computational, mathematical) in order to make valid and reliable scientific claims or determine an optimal design solution. HS-P2.4:Ĭonstructing Explanations and Designing Solutions: Make a quantitative and/or qualitative claim regarding the relationship between dependent and independent variables. HS-P8.5:ĭeveloping and Using Models: Develop and/or use multiple types of models to provide mechanistic accounts and/or predict phenomena, and move flexibly between model types based on merits and limitations. about phenomena and/or the process of development and the design and performance of a proposed process or system) in multiple formats (i.e., orally, graphically, textually, mathematically). Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information: Communicate scientific and/or technical information or ideas (e.g. Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking: Apply ratios, rates, percentages, and unit conversions in the context of complicated measurement problems involving quantities with derived or compound units (such as mg/mL, kg/m3, acre-feet, etc.). Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking: Use mathematical, computational, and/or algorithmic representations of phenomena or design solutions to describe and/or support claims and/or explanations. OverviewStudents analyze and interpret empirical data with mathematical techniques to quantify motion of Earth's continental crust. Reviewed for their alignment with the Next Generation Science Standards as detailed below.
