Read the Band Pattern
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-patient-perspectives. Aligns to PLTW HBS Activity 4.1.4 Diagnose with DNA, in Unit 4 Lesson 4.1. Matched on content: the sim reads a restriction band pattern to reach a diagnosis.
The Angle Is Not the Answer
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-motion-data. Aligns to PLTW HBS Activity 1.2.5 Joints in Motion, in Unit 1 Lesson 1.2, confirmed in myPLTW on 2026-09-12.
The Dose You Never Tested
Ohio course 072040 (Human Anatomy and Physiology). Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-challenge, the bound Wednesday investigation block. Anchored at the LESSON level only: PLTW publishes lesson-level names for HBS and no activity numbers, so no activity number and no activity title is asserted anywhere in this simulation. It is written to stand on its own science whether or not a matching PLTW activity or its kit is ever available.
The Muscle Quit, or Did the Brain?
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-muscles. The exact myPLTW activity number remains unconfirmed pending Manuel's authenticated myPLTW review.
The Track Shows What, Not Who
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-endocrine. The exact myPLTW activity number remains unconfirmed pending Manuel's authenticated myPLTW review. This is a supplemental John Hay lab, not represented as an official PLTW activity.
What a Normal Breathing Test Cannot Tell You
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-respiratory. Aligns to PLTW HBS Activity 3.1.6 A Little TLC, in Unit 3 Lesson 3.1. Matched on content: TLC is total lung capacity and the sim is the breathing test.
What Does the Strip Actually See?
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-patient-perspectives. Aligns to PLTW HBS Project 4.1.5 Urine Trouble, in Unit 4 Lesson 4.1. Matched on content: the sim reads a urine dipstick.
What Is This Trace Allowed to Say?
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-cardio. The exact myPLTW activity number remains unconfirmed pending Manuel's authenticated myPLTW review.
Where in the Loop Is the Delay?
Ohio course 072040; WebXam EFT0. Canonical portal curriculum route: hbs-reflexes. Aligns to PLTW HBS Activity 2.1.6 Ready, Set, React!, in Unit 2 Lesson 2.1. Matched on content: the sim measures reaction time and locates the delay in the reflex loop.
Whose Bacteria Is That?
Ohio course 072040, Human Anatomy and Physiology, WebXam blueprint in src/lib/webxam.ts: Culturing 8.16 percent, Microbiology Testing and Technology 13.27 percent, Laboratory Standard Operational Procedures 4.08 percent. Standards carried by the hbs-immune lesson in deep-hbs-b.ts and used here: 072040 2.2 Evaluate Body Systems and 072040 5.3 Microbiology. 072040 5.6 Culturing is NOT carried by hbs-immune and is therefore not claimed on this sim. Canonical portal route: hbs-immune. The exact myPLTW activity association is a Manuel authenticated-review gate.
