Information and Communication Technology, Kindergarten to Grade 12
C.6 - Students will use technology to investigate and/or solve problems.Specific Outcomes4.1 investigate and solve problems of prediction, calculation and inference4.2 investigate and solve problems of organization and manipulation of information4.3 manipulate data by using charting and graphing technologies in order to test
inferences and probabilities4.4 generate new understandings of problematic situations by using some form of
technology to facilitate the process4.5 evaluate the appropriateness of the technology used to investigate or solve a problem
C1 Students will access, use and communicate information from a variety of technologies.C2 Students will seek alternative viewpoints, using information technologies.C3 Students will critically assess information accessed through the use of a variety of technologies.C4 Students will use organizational processes and tools to manage inquiry.C5 Students will use technology to aid collaboration during inquiry.C6 Students will use technology to investigate and/or solve problems.C7 Students will use electronic research techniques to construct personal knowledge and meaning.

ICT and BiologyICT and Biology
Specific Outcomes for Skills (Nature of Science Emphasis)Initiating and PlanningStudents will:20–B1.1s formulate questions about observed relationships; plan investigations of questions, ideas, problems and issues; and define and delimit problems to facilitate investigation• hypothesize the role of biotic and abiotic factors in ecosystems; e.g., competition and chinooks (IP–NS3) [ICT C6–4.1]
General Outcome 1Students will explain that the biosphere is composed of ecosystems, each with distinctive biotic andabiotic characteristics.

Using Probes
If you have a cup of hot coffee, which of the following will cool the coffee more quickly: adding milk right away or adding milk after three minutes? Design an experiment to help answer this question.
Use the motion detector to match a graph ( use Physics Experiments 1a-1e)
Proscope - look at various objects (e.g.fingernails, hair, leaves) and capture the digital image.
