Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.
Note: this is a performance expectation for four classes: Earth and Space Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of HS-ETS1-4.

Assessment
What assessment of HS-ETS1-4 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation HS-ETS1-4 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
Science and Engineering Practices
- Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking
- Use mathematical models and/or computer simulations to predict the effects of a design solution on systems and/or the interactions between systems.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
- ETS1.B: Developing Possible Solutions
- Both physical models and computers can be used in various ways to aid in the engineering design process. Computers are useful for a variety of purposes, such as running simulations to test different ways of solving a problem or to see which one is most efficient or economical; and in making a persuasive presentation to a client about how a given design will meet his or her needs.
Crosscutting Concepts
- Systems and System Models
- Models (e.g., physical, mathematical, computer models) can be used to simulate systems and their interactions – include energy, matter, and information flows – within and between systems at different scales.
