💡 Big idea: A complete clinical-data packet makes a longitudinal argument: the graph is the evidence, the CER is the interpretation, and the limitations statement shows intellectual honesty.

  1. 0:00Project the tracker checklist; walk through each required item
  2. 0:10Work time: finalize and upload the time-series graph; verify normal range band, labeled axes, and connected data points
  3. 0:28Work time: upload Thursday CER; verify a specific data point is cited and a limitation is stated
  4. 0:45Confirm variables and limitations are documented in the notebook and tracker
  5. 0:58Self-assessment form: check each success criterion; flag any item not fully met
  6. 1:08One-sentence share: what would change your clinical interpretation of this patient's trend?
Mr. Mendoza's 5-minute intro
  • Clinical-data submission day. Your graph and your CER tell the story of this patient's health over two years. Before you upload, make sure the story is complete and honest.
  • Check your graph: is the normal range band visible? Are both axes labeled with units? Are all data points connected with a line? If any of those are missing, fix them now.
  • Check your CER: does it cite a specific data point from the graph? Does it explain why the trend is more informative than a single reading? Does it acknowledge at least one limitation of the data?
  • Self-assess last. If you cannot check off every success criterion, address the gap in this class period.
Do this, step by step
  1. 1Review the tracker checklist for clinical-data deliverables.
  2. 2Upload your time-series bloodwork graph with normal ranges marked.
  3. 3Attach your trend-analysis CER.
  4. 4Confirm variables and limitations are documented.
  5. 5Self-assess against success criteria and flag gaps.
You'll be able to
  • I can submit a complete clinical-data packet.
  • I can verify my work against a checklist.
Know by the end
  • A time-series graph submitted without the normal range band marked is missing the clinical reference frame that makes the data interpretable.
  • The CER must reference specific data points (e.g., 'the glucose reading at month 12 was 145 mg/dL, which is above the 99 mg/dL upper normal limit') to be scientifically credible.
  • Self-assessment against success criteria in a clinical-data context reinforces the habit of auditing your own documentation before it enters a patient record.

Day 5 of this lesson. Open this exact section in myPLTW (reached through Schoology), then do the work below.

Do this: Open myPLTW and confirm all Lesson 2.1 Talk to Your Doc clinical-data unit tasks are marked complete.

Complete

All clinical-data tasks should show as complete in your myPLTW progress view.

How far to get

Every item from Monday through Thursday should be submitted today before you leave.

Upload as evidence

Completed myPLTW clinical-data unit with all tasks marked, plus tracker submission including time-series graph with normal range, CER, variables/limitations documentation, and self-assessment.

All PLTW activities are completed inside the PLTW course environment — this page only gives direction. Submit producibles on Schoology.

The plan

Today's PLTW tracker

Check things off as you work, then submit. This tells Mr. Mendoza how you're doing so he can help the class. It does not replace turning in your producible on Schoology.

What to do if you were absent

If YOU are absent

Today is individual PLTW work, so do exactly what we did in class, from home: complete the same PLTW target above, then submit your Tracker entry.

Open Schoology (CMSD) and keep going

How to get there: open the CMSD website, click Clever, sign in with your Microsoft (district) account, then open Schoology from Clever.

If MR. MENDOZA is absent

Class still runs. Complete the online activity above (it's self-guided). Need the concept taught without a teacher? Use this authoritative explainer:
