Area B - Math and Science

Math

Students will be able to determine whether a problem lends itself to a mathematical* solution, and, if so:

• Design a mathematical solution
• Implement the design or identify and correct problems with the design
• Evaluate the validity of a solution and its relevance to the original problem using reasoned discourse as the norm for decision making

* In the outcomes “mathematical” can mean one or more of “algebraic,” “algorithmic,” “statistical,” “numerical,” or “computational.”

Science

Students will:

• Demonstrate understanding of and literacy in the content and principles of a scientific discipline
• Perform laboratory or field procedures and that explore the content and principles of these disciplines
• Carry out scientific procedures in a socially responsible manner
• Accurately observe, record, analyze, and report data collected in the scientific laboratory or the field
