American Stories: Defining the Dream Through Time

Grade level: 11th Grade

Initial ideas

I want to design a performance task assessment for my 11th grade US history Ethnic Studies students to complete on what it means to be an American. I want this to be an oral history task where they have to design questions to ask someone over 30 to help define what it means to be an American in 2026. I want them to connect to the ideas we learned in when studying the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights. I want them to make connections to the struggles they have learned about by other groups of people throughout the growth of the United States. I would like for them to end the project with a short documentary featuring the person they talked to and the connections they made. I would like to spend two weeks of class time one this.

What if there was a tool to help us take our wild project ideas and create a scope and sequence? There is! Inkwire and the Professional Learning team at High Tech High’s Graduate School of Education designed an AI-assisted curriculum planning tool.

Powered by High Tech High's Kaleidoscope framework for project-based learning (PBL) design, this AI assistant helps educators – and learners! – integrate standards and curriculum requirements into a cycle of PBL Essentials.

The AI-assisted Kaleidoscope tool is co-designed by Inkwire & the High Tech High Graduate School of Education Professional Learning Team. The "Design for Deeper Learning Kaleidoscope" framework is copyright by the High Tech High Graduate School of Education.
