STEM Pedagogy Trans-disciplinary approach to content deployment  SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, MATH  Humanities: Arts, Foreign Language, Socials Studies Project / Problem Based Mastery Assessed (Benchmark Alignment) Framed by the Greater Cleveland Context

CAPSTONE Design Trans-disciplinary approach to content deployment Phase One: Determining Big Ideas Capstone Topic Benchmark Alignment Project Based Units Phase Two: Operationalizing Big Ideas Essential Questions Mastery Learning Goals Phase Three: Assessment Development Evidences of Mastery Description of Assessment Performance Criteria/Rubric Phase Four: Choreography of Learning Learning Activities Sequencing of Instruction

Phase One: Determining Big Ideas Phase Two: Operationalizing Big Ideas Phase Three: Assessment Development Phase Four: Choreography of Learning Unpacking Benchmarks Review Scope & Sequence Familiarize yourself with benchmarks Capstone Big Idea Identify relevant and natural connections between subject areas Brainstorm capstone themes, products and potential partnerships Benchmark Alignment Connect the capstone themes, products and partnerships with the benchmarks Project Based Units Brainstorm major themes for capstone units Phase One: Determining Big Ideas Unpacking Benchmarks Capstone Big Idea Benchmark Alignment Project Based Units Phase Two: Operationalizing Big Ideas Essential Questions Mastery Learning Goals Phase Three: Assessment Development Evidences of Mastery Description of Assessment Performance Criteria/Rubric Phase Four: Choreography of Learning Learning Activities Sequencing of Instruction Determining Big Idea

8 The Bird Finder is a tool conventionally used to measure the angle of inclination one must look to identify "birds" (satellites orbiting the earth) in the night sky. Usually equipped with a compass and plumb bob, an individual would obtain a directional vector by which they could chart their readings. This standard design has been both fine tuned and elaborated upon for greater efficiency, durability, and assembly ease by ninth grade students using the FABLab. Rockets & Robots
