Adaptive Perseverance: Engage in a project to design a public health campaign on maintaining musculoskeletal health.
Critical Thinking: Analyze case studies on musculoskeletal injuries and their treatment options.
Collaboration: Work in teams to create informative presentations on the prevention of musculoskeletal diseases.
Global Citizenship: Understand the global impact of musculoskeletal health issues and explore worldwide health initiatives.
What are the main components of the musculoskeletal system, and what roles do they play in overall body function?
How do muscles and bones work together to produce movement?
What are common injuries and diseases affecting the musculoskeletal system, and how can they be prevented or treated?
Students will explain how muscles and bones interact to facilitate movement.
Critical Analysis: Students will evaluate different conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, understanding their causes, impacts, and treatments. This involves analyzing case studies or research articles.
Research Proficiency: Encourage students to investigate how lifestyle choices affect musculoskeletal health, leading them to gather data from various sources, synthesizing their findings into presentations or reports.
Problem-Solving: Task students with designing solutions for common musculoskeletal issues, such as developing ergonomic workspaces or exercise routines that enhance musculoskeletal health.
NGSS HS-LS1-3: Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that feedback mechanisms maintain homeostasis.
NGSS HS-LS1-2: Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms.
NGSS HS-ETS1-2: Design a solution to a real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.
