Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy.
Clarification statement: Emphasis is on both qualitative and quantitative evaluations of devices. Examples of devices could include Rube Goldberg devices, wind turbines, solar cells, sound level or light meters, solar ovens, and generators. Examples of constraints could include use of renewable energy forms and efficiency.
Assessment boundary: Assessment for quantitative evaluations is limited to total output for a given input. Assessment is limited to devices constructed with materials provided to students.
Performance Level Descriptions
PLDs communicate the knowledge and skills expected of students to demonstrate proficiency in each Learning Standard. NYS assessments classify student performance into one of five levels.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of HS-PS3-3.

Assessment
What assessment of HS-PS3-3 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation HS-PS3-3 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
