Analyze data to support the claim that Ohm’s Law describes the mathematical relationship among the potential difference, current, and resistance of an electric circuit.
Clarification statement: Emphasis should be on arrangements of series circuits and parallel circuits using conventional current.
Assessment boundary: Assessment is limited to direct current (DC) circuits.
Note: this is a NYSED-specific performance expectation that is different from the Next Generation Science Standards.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of HS-PS3-6.

Assessment
What assessment of HS-PS3-6 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation HS-PS3-6 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
- Analyzing and interpreting data: analyze data using tools, technologies, and/or models (e.g., computational, mathematical) in order to make valid and reliable scientific claims or determine an optimal design solution.
- Electrical power and energy can be determined for electric circuits.
- Different patterns may be observed at each of the scales at which a system is studied and can provide evidence for causality in explanations of phenomena.
- Mathematical representations can be used to identify certain patterns.
- Energy can be transferred between once place and another place, between objects and/or fields, or between systems.
