Standards in this Framework
| Standard | Description | 
|---|---|
| HS-PS2-1 | Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration. | 
| HS-PS2-4 | Use mathematical representations of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and Coulomb’s Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects. | 
| HS-PS1-6 | Refine the design of a chemical system by specifying a change in conditions that would produce increased amounts of products at equilibrium.* | 
| HS-PS3-3 | Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy.* | 
| HS-LS2-7 | Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity.* | 
| HS-LS4-6 | Create or revise a simulation to test a solution to mitigate adverse impacts of human activity on biodiversity.* | 
| HS-ESS3-2 | Evaluate competing design solutions for developing, managing, and utilizing energy and mineral resources based on cost-benefit ratios.* | 
| HS-ESS3-4 | Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems.* | 
| HS-ETS1-1 | Analyze a major global challenge to specify qualitative and quantitative criteria and constraints for solutions that account for societal needs and wants. | 
| HS-ETS1-2 | Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering. | 
| HS-ETS1-3 | Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and trade-offs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics as well as possible social, cultural, and environmental impacts. | 
| HS-ETS1-4 | 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. |
