State Content Standards and Objectives

Science

SC.O.P.1.2 demonstrate how a testable methodology is employed to seek solutions for personal and societal issues (e.g., “scientific method”).

SC.O.P.1.3 relate societal, cultural and economic issues to key scientific innovations.

SC.O.P.1.4 conduct and/or design investigations that incorporate the skills and attitudes and/or values of scientific inquiry (e.g., established research protocol, accurate record keeping, replication of results and peer review, objectivity, openness, skepticism, fairness, or creativity and logic).

SC.O.P.2.20 construct and analyze electrical circuits and calculate Ohm's Law problems for series, parallel and complex circuits including voltage drops; calculating power and energy in electrical systems.

SC.O.P.2.21 distinguish between direct and alternating current and identify ways of generating each type.

SC.O.CP.2.28 analyze simple direct current circuits using Ohm's and Kirchoff's laws.
