Submission Required
Students identify what they currently assume 5th graders know, enjoy, and misunderstand about their selected high school science concept. In small groups, they sort assumptions into "probably true," "need to test," and "high risk if wrong," then connect each assumption to a planned interview or survey question. This creates a human-centered research focus before meeting users.
