Connecting AgSTEM TO AKS
Asynchronous 1
Embedded Files
This week your asynchronous modules will be one lesson split into two parts in order to ensure you have the time to complete each part with great thought and collaboration.
ASYNCHRONOUS 1 will include the opening, video, and mini-lesson.
ASYNCHRONOUS 2 will include your team challenges (2) and a closing.

As you work through this lesson, you will act as the student. We will connect the material to the AKS standards, learning objectives, and then, back to your classroom.
Physics/ Engineering
Physics/ Engineering
Physics: Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the important of the Law of Conservation of Energy in predicting the behavior of physical systems
Physical Science: Obtain, evaluate and communicate information to explain transformations and flow of energy within a system
Advanced Physics: Collaborate as a team to optimize a design solution that involves the engineering design process in which solutions are systematically tested and refined

Thinking Bigger
In this video, Dr. Shelton is introducing the process of aquaponics on a larger scale system, similar to the system you are attempting to build. He walks through the system as a drop of water in an effort to show how each of the tanks connects to make a complete system. In this Padlet, include a list of materials you currently have and a list of materials you may need moving into your large-scale commercial system.

Click on the link above that will send you to your mini lesson! The mini-lesson will be focused on walking you through the steps of the engineering design process and how to create a lesson/timeline for implementing the aquaponics system in your classroom. When you are done, submit it through the dropbox link under the lesson.
