HS-PS4-5: Information Technologies and Instrumentation
Students who demonstrate understanding can communicate technical information about how some technological devices use the principles of wave behavior and wave interactions with matter to transmit and capture information and energy.*
*More information about all DCI for HS-PS4 can be found at https://www.nextgenscience.org/topic-arrangement/hswaves-and-electromagnetic-radiation.
Students who demonstrate understanding can communicate technical information about how some technological devices use the principles of wave behavior and wave interactions with matter to transmit and capture information and energy.
Examples could include solar cells capturing light and converting it to electricity; medical imaging; and communications technology.
Assessments are limited to qualitative information. Assessments do not include band theory.
