Crosscutting Concepts: Structure and Function The shape and stability of structures of natural and designed objects are related to their function(s).

California Environmental Principles and Concepts:
Principle V Decisions affecting resources and natural systems are based on a wide range of considerations and decision-making processes.

California Common Core State Standards Connections:
ELA/Literacy SL.2.5: Create audio recordings of stories or poems; add drawings or other visual displays to stories or recounts of experiences when appropriate to clarify ideas, thoughts, and feelings.

Disciplinary Core Idea: ETS1.B: Developing Possible Solutions
Cross Cutting Concept: CCC-4: Systems and Systems Models
Science & Engineering Practice: SEP-5: Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking
Content Area: Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science

Title: HS-ETS1 Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science

Performance Expectation: Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.

Disciplinary Core Idea(s):
ETS1.B: Developing Possible Solutions Both physical models and computers can be used in various ways to aid in the Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science process. Computers are useful for a variety of purposes, such as running simulations to test different ways of solving a problem or to see which one is most efficient or economical; and in making a persuasive presentation to a client about how a given design will meet his or her needs.

Science & Engineering Practices: Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking Use mathematical models and/or computer simulations to predict the effects of a design solution on systems and/or the interactions between systems.

Crosscutting Concepts: Systems and System Models Models (e.g., physical, mathematical, computer models) can be used to simulate systems and interactions—including energy, matter, and information flows—within and between systems at different scales.

California Environmental Principles and Concepts:
Principle V Decisions affecting resources and natural systems are based on a wide range of considerations and decision-making processes.
