- 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.

💡 Big idea: Submitting a complete, documented package is the professional standard: incomplete records are a clinical and ethical liability.
- 0-10 minGather evidence table, differential, and CER; organize into one labeled file.
- 10-30 minRubric self-check: verify all sections are complete and terminology is correct.
- 30-45 minAdd source citations and unresolved-uncertainty notes to the package.
- 45-60 minUpdate project tracker: status, confidence rating, and reflective note on limitations.
- 60-75 minSubmit package in Schoology; record submission confirmation.
- 75-80 minPreview next unit; write one question you have about infection control.
- • Today is close-out day: your job is the same one a clinical lab tech has when signing off a case file.
- • Every artifact needs a source citation and a limitation note before the package is complete.
- • WebXam 072110 strand 1 (Handling/Preparation/Storage/Disposal) is partly about documentation discipline.
- • Submit on time: late packages lose the accountability credit even if the science is correct.
- 1Compile the evidence table, differential, and recommendation CER into one file.
- 2Check the package against the rubric for completeness and correct terminology.
- 3Cite all data sources and note unresolved uncertainties.
- 4Update the project tracker with status and a confidence rating.
- 5Submit the workup package through the course portal on time.
- • Submit a complete, rubric-aligned workup package on time.
- • Tracker reflects accurate status and a reflective note on limitations.
- • A complete workup package contains the evidence table, differential, and CER as linked artifacts.
- • Citing all data sources is a documentation requirement for both clinical practice and WebXam 072110.
- • A tracker confidence rating converts self-assessment into a learning metric.

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 2.3 New to the Practice activities show a completed status.
All unit activities should be marked complete or submitted before you close the platform today.
Every activity in the Lesson 2.3 diagnostic-workup section should be done by end of this period.
Platform completion status plus Schoology submission confirmation are required.
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.
