[7.ETS.1.4] - Generate and analyze data from iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process to optimize the object, tool, or process for its intended purpose.*

Resources:

Predecessor Standards:

  • 6.SP.B.4
    Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
  • 6.SP.B.5
    Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by.
  • 4.ETS.1.3
    Plan and carry out tests of one or more design features of a given model or prototype in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify which features need to be improved. Apply the results of tests to redesign a model or prototype.* Clarification Statement: Examples of design features can include materials, size, shape, and weight.

Successor Standards:

  • HS.ETS.1.3
    Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and trade-offs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, aesthetics, and maintenance, as well as social, cultural, and environmental impacts.*

Same Level Standards:

  • 7.RP.A.2.a
    Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin.
  • 7.PS.3.3
    Apply scientific principles of energy and heat transfer to design, construct, and test a device to minimize or maximize thermal energy transfer.* Clarification Statement: Examples of devices could include an insulated box, a solar cooker, and a vacuum flask. State Assessment Boundary: Accounting for specific heat or calculations of the total amount of thermal energy transferred is not expected in state assessment.
  • 7.ETS.1.7
    Construct a prototype of a solution to a given design problem.*
