Applied Science and Engineering Practices

Catalog description

This course develops skills in observing, asking questions, collecting and analyzing data, and drawing and communicating reasonable conclusions as important skills for daily living. Used by a range of careers, the skills in identifying and solving problems contribute to understanding real issues. Project-based learning (PBL) establishes a genuine world context as it engages students in meaningful experiences. These require the ability to state a claim, cite appropriate evidence, and connect the evidence to the claim using reason as a form of scientific argumentation.
