miniPCR bio TM Dye Electrophoresis Lab: Molecular Rainbow - Instructor's and Student's Guide Version: 1.0 - Release: April 2022 - © 2022 by miniPCR bio™ P./28 Instructor's Guide Science and Engineering Practice Disciplinary Core Ideas Crosscutting Concepts • Asking Questions and Defining Problems • Planning and Carrying Out Investigations • Analyzing and Interpreting Data • Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions • Engaging in Argument from Evidence • Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information PS2B: Types of interactions • Patterns • Interdependence of Science, Engineering, and Technology • Influence of Engineering, Technology, and Science on Society and the Natural World Standards alignment Next Generation Science Standards Students who demonstrate understanding can: MS-PS2-3 Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces. MS-PS2-5 Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact. Common Core ELA/Literacy Standards RST.6-8.1 Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts. RST.6-8.3 Follow precisely a multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks. RST.6-8.4 Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain-specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific scientific or technical context relevant to grades 6-8 texts and topics. RST.6-8.5 Analyze the structure an author uses to organize a text, including how the major sections contribute to the whole and to an understanding of the topic. RST.6-8.7 Integrate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text with a version of that information expressed visually (e.g., in a flowchart, diagram, model, graph, or table). WHST.6-8.1 Write arguments focused on discipline-specific content. WHST.6-8.1.A Introduce claim(s) about a topic or issue, acknowledge and distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and organize the reasons and evidence logically. WHST.6-8.1.B Support claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or text, using credible sources. For simplicity, this activity has been aligned to high school NGSS and grades 6-8 Common Core standards. This activity also aligns with equivalent grade 9-10 standards.
