Organize, Analyze, and Synthesize Claims

Description

In this lesson, students organize, analyze, and synthesize their claims using their Forming Evidence-Based Claims Tools from the previous lesson to develop comprehensive claims about each inquiry path in the research frame. This work directly prepares students to develop and write an evidence-based perspective for the End-of-Unit Assessment (12.3.1 Lesson 27). Students build on the claims created in the previous lesson to develop comprehensive claims that reflect a deeper understanding of the inquiry paths and the problem-based question itself, and begin to develop a perspective on their issue.
