Communication and CollaborationCC

  • 1

    Collect and document evidence to share information with others in multiple media forms.8.CC.1

  • 2

    Communicate the solution(s) of a problem/analysis either orally, visually, or in writing, including process steps, findings, or conclusions. 8.CC.2

  • 3

    Identify, implement, and assign roles and responsibilities to collaborate in various group settings (i.e., online, onsite and/or hybrid) and situations. 8.CC.3

  • 4

    Communicate specific constraints and criteria established for an investigation.8.CC.4

  • 5

    Evaluate competing solutions or arguments in a systematic way based on qualitative and/or quantitative evidence.8.CC.5

Data Analysis and Measurement DM

  • 1

    Use multiple systems of measurement (i.e., standard and metric) and data sets (e.g., plots, tables, graphs, charts) defined in grade level content standards to analyze real-world scenarios and the mathematical relationships represented by the data. 8.DM.1

  • 2

    Construct visual representations (e.g., bar graphs, charts) to determine patterns or statistical analysis (e.g., mean, median) defined in grade level content standards.8.DM.2

  • 3

    Use approximations and evaluate reasonableness of observations, results, and solutions throughout processes. 8.DM.3

  • 4

    Choose data sets and analysis methods to support the inquiry process.8.DM.4

Inquiry-Based Approaches and Problem Solving IPS

  • 1

    Conduct or extend an original investigation, analyze results, iterate, and revise to improve the design.8.IPS.1

  • 2

    Determine one or more viable solutions using data and information to resolve a scenario given criteria and constraints.8.IPS.2

  • 3

    Integrate processes and methodologies across disciplines based on content specific standards to incorporate multiple sources of evidence to support defining a solution. 8.IPS.3

Applications and ModelingAM

  • 1

    Interpret and evaluate relationships among sets of data (e.g., distance-time graph). 8.AM.1

  • 2

    Use coordinate planes or number lines to examine information and represent solutions. 8.AM.2

  • 3

    Use models to compare and contrast different systems and explain the factors that influence them. 8.AM.3

  • 4

    Use and revise models to describe, test, and predict phenomena or solutions. 8.AM.4

Information and Digital LiteracyIDL

  • 1

    Identify and evaluate the impact of technology when selecting tools to solve a problem in order to determine the most effective solution.8.IDL.1

  • 2

    Review and compile information from multiple sources to solve a problem. 8.IDL.2

  • 3

    Describe how solutions or technologies are adapted to meet the changing needs and wants of individuals or communities.8.IDL.3
