There are three version of this concept map included: for print in PDF format. for digital use in PowerPoint, and for digital use with Google Slides. Looking for a hands on way to teach energy flow through an ecosyste

STEM and STEAM teachers - Need some tools to help your students understand the engineering design process? These engineering design process PowerPoints are aligned with sketch notes to engage your students in the teaching process. The Google Forms allow for easy formative assessment, so that you can easily assess your student's understanding and misconceptions, allowing for you to reteach as necessary.

Sketch notes are designed to provide visual clues to engage students and help them retain learning about the engineering design process. There will be 5 different topics covered: - Engineering Design Process (an overview) - Before the Design- Problem Definition - Design Testing - Design Optimization - After the Design Each topic includes a 2-page note sheet. There are three different forms- blank, fill-in-the-blank, and complete- to allow for differentiati
