How to use the class website
Tue, Aug 25, 2026 · Week 1 · Principles of Biomedical Technology (Principles of Biomedical Science)
Today's goal: Learn to navigate mendozabiomed.org/learn: find each day's target, checklist, resources, and tracker, and practice the daily habit of checking the website for today's target, and Schoology for your grade.
This is a model of the work you should turn in today. Use it to check your own: match the structure and the level of detail, do not copy it. Your data and wording should be your own.
Today's objective (copied from the lesson page): set up Cornell notes and take a first page.
Resource I opened: the Cornell note-taking guide.
Where I submit: on the class site, or handed to Mr. Mendoza in class, plus a myPLTW screenshot.
This model shows the level of evidence and organization needed to complete: Completes the website orientation: the student locates the day's objective, opens a resource, and finds where to submit.
- Name the prompt or task.
- Answer it directly with the key evidence.
- Check that the response matches the requested format.
Keep the structure. Replace the question, facts, measurements, and evidence. Then recheck units, vocabulary, and whether the conclusion goes beyond the evidence.
Claim ceiling: Today's evidence supports a classroom claim about today's lesson. It cannot prove causation, diagnose a real patient, or justify action outside this room.
One exam-style question that uses exactly what you practiced today. Try it before you reveal the answer, then read why each choice is right or wrong.
Tap an answer to see the full explanation. Nothing is recorded or graded.
It builds this reusable test skill: keeping an accurate, complete record.
- Name the concept or data pattern being tested.
- Cross out choices that violate that rule or the evidence.
- Justify the best remaining choice before checking the answer.
