Objective: SWBAT analyze research data in order to begin designing the most effective supply pod design for disaster victims.

Do Now:

0

If you were an engineer for the army, would you focus more on cost and try to produce more supply pods?

Or, would you focus on damage to ensure all supplies that reach the ground are safe and usable? Explain why.

Guided Notes: Energy

  1. Quantitative Data: information about quantities; that is, information that can be measured and written down with numbers
  • Cost of egg drop pod
  • Time it takes to drop
  • Mass/weight of the pod
2. Qualitative data: information about qualities; information that can't actually be measured
  • Type of padding
  • Type of shell

Graph the damage relationships Below.

2

What is the relationship between mass and shell damage?
CFS:
  • Student identifies the most correct relationship between the IV and DV
  • Student describes the impact and relationship between changing variables

2

What is the relationship between velocity and shell damage?
CFS:
  • Student identifies the most correct relationship between the IV and DV
  • Student describes the impact and relationship between changing variables

0

Acrylic is the most protective shell type, why do you think it is a poor option for our engineers?
CFS:
  • Student identifies the most correct cost benefit benefit relationship
  • Student describes the impact and relationship of the chosen design decisions

Exit Ticket:

Identify which wants/needs the design solution meets and which it failed to meet when sampling aquatic organisms.

Environmental Principle II: The long-term functioning and health of terrestrial, freshwater, coastal, and marine ecosystems are influenced by their relationships with human societies

Scientists are considering two methods for collecting samples:
  1. Drone: a silent remote controlled drone robot that flies over a whale and collects samples quickly. The cost is $5,000.
  2. Boat: A gasoline-powered speed boat that is already owned by scientists. It drives up to a whale and a passenger collects a sample quickly. The cost is $0.
- - - -
The table shows three different requirements for deciding which method to use. Place a check to identify the requirements that best fit each method.

Why is one whale sample collection method more effective and efficient than the other?
CFS:
  • Student describes the impact and relationship of the chosen design decisions
  • Accurately identifies the strongest sources of evidence from the experimental data
