Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

Performance Level Descriptions

PLDs communicate the knowledge and skills expected of students to demonstrate proficiency in each Learning Standard. NYS assessments classify student performance into one of four levels.

Level 1: Identify a design solution, from those provided, that best meets the criteria and/or constraints for a given problem.
Level 2: Evaluate a design solution using a systematic process based on whether it meets the criteria and/or constraints of the problem.
Level 3: Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
Level 4: Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem and defend the best design solution based on the criteria and constraints.

Resources

Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of MS-ETS1-2.

Assessment

What assessment of MS-ETS1-2 might look like on a NY state exam.

Exam Cluster Question

Spring 2025 Rust Question 27
Spring 2024 Variation and Corn Question 11


NGSS Dimensions

Performance expectation MS-ETS1-2 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:

Science and Engineering Practices
  • Engaging in Argument from Evidence
    • Evaluate competing design solutions based on jointly developed and agreed-upon design criteria.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
  • ETS1.B: Developing Possible Solutions
    • There are systematic processes for evaluating solutions with respect to how well they meet the criteria and constraints of a problem.
Crosscutting Concepts
  • There are no Crosscutting Concepts linked to this standard.
