CCC, SEP and 5E Model

Which SEP is defined by "A practice of science is to ask and refine questions that lead to descriptions and explanations of how the natural and designed world works and which can be empirically tested?"

• Asking Questions and Defining Problems

• Develop and Use Model

• Plan and Carry Out Investigations

• Analyze and Interpret Data

• Mathematical Thinking

NGSS.HS-LS3-1

Which SEP is defined by "A practice of both science and engineering is to use and construct models as helpful tools for representing ideas and explanations. These tools include diagrams, drawings, physical replicas, mathematical representations, analogies, and computer simulations?"

• Asking Questions and Defining Problems

• Develop and Use Model

• Plan and Carry Out Investigations

• Analyze and Interpret Data

• Mathematical Thinking

NGSS.MS-ETS1-4

Which SEP is defined by "Scientists and engineers plan and carry out investigations in the field or laboratory, working collaboratively as well as individually. Their investigations are systematic and require clarifying what counts as data and identifying variables or parameters?"

• Asking Questions and Defining Problems

• Develop and Use Model

• Plan and Carry Out Investigations

• Analyze and Interpret Data

• Mathematical Thinking

NGSS.HS-ESS2-5

NGSS.HS-LS1-3

NGSS.HS-PS2-5

Which SEP is defined by "Scientific investigations produce data that must be analyzed in order to derive meaning. Because data patterns and trends are not always obvious, scientists use a range of tools—including tabulation, graphical interpretation, visualization, and statistical analysis—to identify the significant features and patterns in the data. Scientists identify sources of error in the investigations and calculate the degree of certainty in the results. Modern technology makes the collection of large data sets much easier, providing secondary sources for analysis?"

NGSS.MS-PS3-5

Which CCC is defined by "In considering phenomena, it is critical to recognize what is relevant at different size, time, and energy scales, and to recognize proportional relationships between different quantities as scales change?"

• Patterns

• Cause and Effect

• Scale, Proportion and Quanity

• Systems and System Models
