Standard 9

Standard:


MS-ETS1-2. Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.




Demonstration:

 As an introduction to scoring using the student-created rubric, the teacher will score a previous year's machine with student input. Project the rubric onto the board and, with student input, score the machine in each category.




Activity:

Once groups have built their own Rube Goldberg machines, groups will score another group's machine using the previously created rubric.





Essential Questions:

What are qualities of a "good" Rube-Goldberg machine?

In what ways could the machine you are scoring be improved?
