Grade level: 7th Grade

Initial ideas

ou encounter geologic landscapes that were shaped by volcanic heat, cooling, weathering, and erosion over very different time scales, yet these processes are often difficult to interpret from surface features alone. Limited public understanding of how rock formations develop and continue to change can lead to misuse, damage from tourism and resource extraction, and weaker decisions about protecting landforms and the materials people rely on.

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.
