Demonstrate understanding of how different disciplines influence a technological development
This standard asks you to show that you understand how different fields of knowledge (like science, maths, design, etc.) came together to create a real technological product or system. You need to pick a technological development, identify which disciplines were involved, explain how people from those different fields worked together, and describe how their combined knowledge actually shaped the final product.
You identify at least two disciplines involved, describe what knowledge they contributed, and explain how their collaboration affected the technological development.
You explain in detail how the knowledge, practices, and collaboration from different disciplines directly impacted the shape and success of the technological development.
You discuss how knowledge and practices from different disciplines actively interacted and depended on each other to create the technological development, showing the interconnected nature of the work.
