Standard 10: Energy
A. Energy is involved in all physical and chemical processes. It is conserved, and can be transformed from one form to another and into work. At the atomic and nuclear levels energy is not continuous but exists in discrete amounts. Energy and mass are related through Einstein's equation E=mc2.
B. The properties of atomic nuclei are responsible for energy-related phenomena such as radioactivity, fission and fusion.
C. Changes in entropy and energy that accompany chemical reactions influence reaction paths. Chemical reactions result in the release or absorption of energy.

Hispanic heritage extracredit assignment

Dear students
Starting September15 we have the Hispanic heritage month.
During this month all my students in group of not more than two will have to create a comprehensive guide to visit one of the countries listed below.

There is a major condition if you are from any of these countries you cannot select that country since that will be an unfair advantage to your classmates
Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador,
Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela.
Once you selected one of these countries.
1. You will have to make a power point presentation
2. Recommend at least five places that should be visited in the country either for its beauty or historical or cultural importance.
3. Research how much such a trip could cost you.
4. Research which are the conditions of the country for your health and security. (if you need to take special precautions in specific regions due to guerrillas or health issues.
It is very important that devote at least two slides for the music and art of the country. At least one slide for the fundamental economical resources of the country. At least one slide for the possibilities a student your age will have to complete its high school education. The average amount of money a person on that country earns, etc.
Also what are the religions practiced in the country.

Standard 1: The Practice of Science
A: Scientific inquiry is a multifaceted activity; The processes of science include the formulation of scientifically investigable questions, construction of investigations into those questions, the collection of appropriate data, the evaluation of the meaning of those data, and the communication of this evaluation.
B: The processes of science frequently do not correspond to the traditional portrayal of "the scientific method."
C: Scientific argumentation is a necessary part of scientific inquiry and plays an important role in the generation and validation of scientific knowledge.
D: Scientific knowledge is based on observation and inference; it is important to recognize that these are very different things. Not only does science require creativity in its methods and processes, but also in its questions and explanations.

SC.912.N.1.1
Define a problem based on a specific body of knowledge, for example: biology, chemistry, physics, and earth/space science, and do the following:
1. pose questions about the natural world,
2. conduct systematic observations,
3. examine books and other sources of information to see what is already known,
4. review what is known in light of empirical evidence,
5. plan investigations,
6. use tools to gather, analyze, and interpret data (this includes the use of measurement in metric and other systems, and also the generation and interpretation of graphical representations of data, including data tables and graphs),
7. pose answers, explanations, or descriptions of events,
8. generate explanations that explicate or describe natural phenomena (inferences),
9. use appropriate evidence and reasoning to justify these explanations to others,
10. communicate results of scientific investigations, and
11. evaluate the merits of the explanations produced by others.
Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: High

SC.912.N.1.3
Recognize that the strength or usefulness of a scientific claim is evaluated through scientific argumentation, which depends on critical and logical thinking, and the active consideration of alternative scientific explanations to explain the data presented.Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: Low

SC.912.N.1.4

Identify sources of information and assess their reliability according to the strict standards of scientific investigation.

Standard 2: The Characteristics of Scientific Knowledge
A: Scientific knowledge is based on empirical evidence, and is appropriate for understanding the natural world, but it provides only a limited understanding of the supernatural, aesthetic, or other ways of knowing, such as art, philosophy, religion.
B: Scientific knowledge is durable and robust, but open to change.
C: Because science is based on empirical evidence it strives for objectivity, but as it is a human endeavor the processes, methods, and knowledge of science include subjectivity, as well as creativity and discovery.

BENCHMARK

SC.912.N.2.2
Identify which questions can be answered through science and which questions are outside the boundaries of scientific investigation, such as questions addressed by other ways of knowing, such as art, philosophy, and religion.
Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: High

SC.912.N.2.4
Explain that scientific knowledge is both durable and robust and open to change. Scientific knowledge can change because it is often examined and re-examined by new investigations and scientific argumentation. Because of these frequent examinations, scientific knowledge becomes stronger, leading to its durability.
Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: High

SC.912.N.2.5
Describe instances in which scientists' varied backgrounds, talents, interests, and goals influence the inferences and thus the explanations that they make about observations of natural phenomena and describe that competing interpretations (explanations) of scientists are a strength of science as they are a source of new, testable ideas that have the potential to add new evidence to support one or another of the explanations.

Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: High


Standard 3: The Role of Theories, Laws, Hypotheses, and Models
The terms that describe examples of scientific knowledge, for example: "theory," "law," "hypothesis" and "model" have very specific meanings and functions within science.

BENCHMARK CODE
BENCHMARK

SC.912.N.3.1
Explain that a scientific theory is the culmination of many scientific investigations drawing together all the current evidence concerning a substantial range of phenomena; thus, a scientific theory represents the most powerful explanation scientists have to offer.

Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: High

SC.912.N.3.2
Describe the role consensus plays in the historical development of a theory in any one of the disciplines of science.

Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: Moderate

SC.912.N.3.3
Explain that scientific laws are descriptions of specific relationships under given conditions in nature, but do not offer explanations for those relationships.

Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: Moderate

SC.912.N.3.4
Recognize that theories do not become laws, nor do laws become theories; theories are well supported explanations and laws are well supported descriptions
Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: Moderate
SC.912.N.3.5
Describe the function of models in science, and identify the wide range of models used in science.

Cognitive Complexity/Depth of Knowledge Rating: Moderate


Standard 4: Science and Society
As tomorrows citizens, students should be able to identify issues about which society could provide input, formulate scientifically investigable questions about those issues, construct investigations of their questions, collect and evaluate data from their investigations, and develop scientific recommendations based upon their findings.
