- CER:
- Claim, Evidence, Reasoning — make a claim, back it with evidence, explain your reasoning.
- SOP:
- Standard Operating Procedure — the exact steps to follow (especially in a lab).
- Tracker:
- Your PLTW progress log where you record completed evidence.
- myPLTW:
- The PLTW course site where you do the online activities — you open it through Schoology.
Minute-by-minute · 80-minute block
💡 Big idea: Evidence only counts when it is complete, documented, and submitted: accountability closes the scientific loop.
- 0-10 minRetrieve karyotype, pedigree, and CER; organize into one labeled file or folder.
- 10-30 minRubric self-check: verify vocabulary, labels, citations, and quantitative claim.
- 30-45 minAdd a closing limitations note and data-source citations to the package.
- 45-60 minUpdate project tracker: status, confidence rating, and one reflective note.
- 60-75 minSubmit package in Schoology; screenshot or note submission confirmation.
- 75-80 minPreview next unit question on board; record one thing you still wonder about genetics.
- • This is your wrap-up and accountability day: everything from this unit comes together in one package.
- • Think of yourself as a lab technician closing a case file: everything must be labeled, cited, and signed off.
- • Handling and documentation are strand 1 of WebXam 072110, so your submission habits are literally part of the test.
- • Update the tracker honestly: a low confidence rating is data, not a grade.
- 1Assemble the karyotype, pedigree, and CER into one labeled evidence file.
- 2Check each artifact against the rubric for completeness and correct vocabulary.
- 3Cite the data sources and note any unresolved limitations in a closing line.
- 4Update the project tracker with status and a self-assessed confidence rating.
- 5Submit the package through the course portal before the deadline.
- • Submit a complete, rubric-aligned evidence package on time.
- • Tracker reflects accurate status and one reflective note on remaining limitations.
- • A complete evidence package links claim, data, and reasoning across all three artifacts.
- • Citing sources and stating limitations demonstrates scientific integrity required for WebXam 072110.
- • A tracker entry with a confidence rating turns self-assessment into actionable feedback.

Unit 2.2 to 2.3: Chromosomal abnormalities, genetic risk, family evidence, diagnosis from mixed data. · Submit tracker and evidence
Day 5 of this lesson. Open this exact section in myPLTW (reached through Schoology), then do the work below.
Do this: Open myPLTW and verify all Lesson 2.2 Decoding a Diagnosis activities for this unit are marked complete before submitting your evidence package.
Confirm all unit activities show a submitted or completed status in the platform.
Every activity in the Lesson 2.2 genetic-risk section should be done by end of today.
Platform completion status plus your Schoology submission are the two required evidence points.
All PLTW activities are completed inside the PLTW course environment — this page only gives direction. Submit producibles on Schoology.
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.
