Students will engage with community partners and peers to explore health disparities, gathering insights on diverse experiences with illness and immunity through interactive discussions and simulations to build empathy and inform subsequent phases of the project.

Students will articulate the educational impact of their project by defining its core objectives, desired outcomes, and significance in understanding why certain individuals are more prone to illness, setting the direction for their subsequent exploration of evolution and natural selection principles.

Students will brainstorm and collaborate with peers, teachers, and community experts to generate innovative project ideas that leverage local resources and connect scientific concepts of evolution and health to real-world applications.

Students will draft outlines and sketches for their interactive digital dioramas that illustrate evolutionary concepts, collaborating in teams to explore species adaptation and survival scenarios using augmented reality tools.

Students will participate in a simulated ecosystem where they manipulate environmental variables to observe real-time impacts on species adaptation and biodiversity, testing the project's interactive elements for engagement and learning efficacy in preparation for the exhibition phase.

Students will engage in structured peer review sessions to provide and receive feedback on their project designs, utilizing specific critique protocols to identify areas for improvement and further refinement, ensuring alignment with learning goals and preparation for the final exhibition.

Students will participate in reflective discussions and create visual timelines to articulate their learning breakthroughs and forecast how the insights gained on evolution and natural selection may inform their approach in upcoming projects or life scenarios.
