UNIT LEARNING INTENTIONS (edit)

In This Unit:

I can select or create a model and use it to perform operations, interpret the results and draw conclusions that connect back to the original problem.

I can validate the conclusions by comparing them with the situation, and then either improving the model or reporting on the conclusions and the reasoning behind them.

I can frame my question as a hypothesis based on a model or theory, with an accurate and specific explanation of the relationship between variables.
