Educator Design Challenges
In 2008, Transformation 2013 worked with master science and math educators to design PBLs for the core math and science areas. These design challenges are rigorous, aligned with CSCOPE and include career connections, 21st Century skills and provide STEM connections. Click on the course to see and download the design challenges.

Matter |
|
In this design challenge, students will learn about the characteristics of matter, including the differences between matter’s physical and chemical properties and the properties of mixtures verses pure substances. Additionally, the traits of solids, liquids, and gases will be investigated along with how they can transform into one another. The students will research community programs and methods of recycling common materials. They will create a proposal and a school wide campaign to establish, promote, and initiate or expand a recycling program on their campus.
