Submission Required
Grading Required
Teams submit their critique-ready package: revised problem statement, updated zone plan, annotated model, and evidence summary from journals and testing. The teacher and a review panel use a rubric to check whether the design is scientifically accurate, responsive to users, and ready to move into reflection and preparation for sharing. Students briefly conference about remaining risks, especially around plant survival, weather exposure, biodiversity, and reducing human impact.
