These plans should be used in a presentation to the principal or the school board.

Which of the 4C's this activity would fall under? Science – 8th Grade. Student teams design plans for a device that will assist people with disabilities and create 3-D sketches of their device using simple computeraided design software. The class develops criteria for peer review, and then teams pass their plans to another team that makes recommendations for refinements to improve the original plans. All teams debrief together on their experience with the engineering/design process and identify the different scientific disciplines they used to create their design (biology, physics, engineering, etc.) and how those disciplines interrelate when applied to solving the design problem. Students also discuss what other expertise they could use to improve their designs—including input from people with the disabilities their designs address. Students are able to describe how science and engineering involve creative processes that include generating and testing ideas, making observations, and formulating explanations, and can apply these processes in their own investigations.
