Standards & Competencies:Exploratory = pre-industry content standard
C = CORE Standards 1-7 (The Nature of Technology, Technology & Society)
Students will develop an understanding of The Nature of Technology. This includes acquiring knowledge of:
Standard 1: the characteristics and scope of technology.
In order to comprehend the scope of technology, students should learn that:
C1.3 Inventions and innovations in a specific area are generally driven by research to achieve a specific objective.
Standard 3: the relationships among technologies and the connections between technology and other fields of study.
In order to appreciate the relationships among technologies, as well as other fields of study, students should learn that:
C3.1 Technology transfer occurs when a new user applies an existing innovation developed for one purpose in a different function; al technical systems are interrelated.
C3.2 Technological innovation often results when ideas, knowledge, or skills are shared within a technology, among technologies, or across other fields.
C3.3 Technological ideas are sometimes protected through the patent process.
C3.4 Technological progress promotes the understanding and relevance of science, mathematics, reading, writing and oral communications.
Standard 8: the attributes of design.
In order to recognize the attributes of design, students should learn that:
DP8.1 Design problems are seldom presented in a clearly defined form; the best results are often based on the clarity of the design problem.
DP8.2 The design needs to be continually checked and critiqued, and the ideas of the design must be redefined and improved; the best results are often achieved when the process in non-linear.
DP8.3 Requirements of a design, such as criteria, constraints, and efficiency, sometimes compete with each other.
Standard 9: design process
In order to comprehend engineering design, students should learn that:
DP9.1 Established design principles are used to evaluate existing designs, to collect data, and to guide the design process; Design principles are often rules of thumb rather than absolutes.
DP9.2 The design process is influenced by personal characteristics, such as creativity, teamwork, resourcefulness, and the ability to visualize and think abstractly.
DP9.3 A prototype is a working model used to test a design concept by making actual observations and necessary adjustments.
DP9.4 The design process takes into account a number of factors, including safety, reliability, economic considerations, manufacturability, maintenance and repairs, and human factors engineering; the design process can't be complete without a prototype or virtual model.
Students will develop Abilities for a Technological World. This includes becoming able to:
Standard 11: apply the design process.
As a part of learning how to apply design processes, students should be able to:
DP11.1 Identify the design problem to solve and decide whether or not to address it; differentiate between problems and solutions.
DP11.2 Identify criteria and constraints and determine how these will affect the design process.
DP11.3 Refine a design by using prototypes and modeling to ensure quality, efficiency, and productivity of the final product.
DP11.4 Evaluate the design solution using conceptual, physical and mathematical models at various intervals of the design process in order to check for proper design and to note where areas of improvements are needed.
DP11.5 Develop and produce a product or system using a design process.
DP11.6 Evaluate final solutions and communicate observations, processes, and results of the entire design process, using verbal, graphic, quantitative, virtual, and written means, in addition to three-dimensional models.
Standard 12: use and maintain technological products and systems.
As part of learning how to use and maintain technological products and systems, students should be able to:
DP12.1 Document process and procedures and communicate them to different audiences using appropriate oral and written techniques; technical communications is critical to maintaining and operating a system.
DP12.5 Use computers and calculators to access, retrieve, organize, process, maintain, interpret, and evaluate data and information in order to communicate.
