Description
Get your middle school science class talking with this biology discussion activity on sensory enhancement and augmentation, recommended for grade 6-8 students learning about human senses! Designed with MYP in mind but appropriate for any middle school, high school, international, or homeschool STEM curriculum.
Students take on one of 5 character roles to discuss the benefits and risks of sensory enhancement technologies. In the process, they must consider scientific discoveries, sensory disorders, and the limits of human sensory perception to determine if augmenting our senses is a good thing or not. Print and share or use the included slides for a paperless digital experience. Can be used as a formative assessment to check for understanding or as a summative assessment using the included MYP rubrics (criteria A and D).
