X – Educational Standards

The Challenge Educational Standards

The eight Challenges produced by the PHOTON PBL Project were matched to the US national Science, Technology, and Mathematics content standards and benchmarked for grades 9 – 12. Our goal is to provide teachers greater flexibility in incorporating one or more Challenges into an existing curriculum.

This two page matrix chart of all the Challenges shows at a glance which general content standards are satisfied by which Challenge.
