Data-Driven Solutions & Interdisciplinary Thinking

Focus: Using Data to Design Solutions

In 10th grade, students move from understanding problems to designing solutions using data and evidence. Projects are more structured and require deeper connections across STEM disciplines.

What Students Do:

• Analyze real datasets (e.g., food access, community needs)

• Design solutions such as apps, systems, or physical prototypes

• Integrate concepts from math, science, engineering, and technology

• Begin presenting ideas with supporting evidence

Skills Developed:

• Data analysis and interpretation

• Algorithmic and systems thinking

• Interdisciplinary problem-solving

• Evidence-based reasoning

👉 Goal: Learn to use data to justify and improve solutions
