. 3.2. Walked through the parts of the sensor using example sensor that we (the virtual instructor) had. (*Note – At Pitt, we had the same monitor so we were able to talk about the monitor through both pictures on the slides and physically over Zoom.) 4. To prepare for the next module, we instructed the students to consider what places or areas they want to set up the monitor to collect data. Module Session 5 LO 5. Creating a Monitoring Program and Collecting Data 1. Reviewed major takeaways from previous modules 2. Creating a Monitoring Plan 2.1. Defined what a Monitoring Plan is for the students 2.2.

various playgrounds in the world, analyzingusers’ photos, interacting with various users, andreading playground engineers’ stories. DAY1: PHYSICAL FORCES Students rotate to three learning centers to investigate forces in playground equipment. Swing set: Discuss how gravity and inertia are involved in swing sets and calculate the rate of the pendulum swing. Slide: Investigate how different materials influence friction on the slide. Seesaw: Predict and investigate how a lever works. DAY 2: ENTER THE USERS’ WORLD Enter: Identify users and problems that they need to solve. Plan to understand the users’ experiences
can directly impact students’ lives and communities to inform the direction of the unit plan. It is his hope that these and the future curricula he will work on will help to include and empower more diverse students to see themselves in the fields of science and engineering, as well as see themselves as advocates for change and innovation in their communities.
