| Duration | 60 minutes | Form | SHS 3 |
| Strand | BIOMEDICAL INTERVENTION | Sub-Strand | DIAGNOSTIC DEVICE |
| Learning Outcome(s) | 3.3.1.LO.1 - Design and construct some basic medical devices and pitch them to potential investors | ||
| Content Standard | 3.3.1.CS.1 | ||
| Learning Indicator(s) | 3.3.1.LI.3 - Develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. Project-Based Learning: Learners work in mixed-ability groups to develop a marketing plan to pitch a designed device or a specified device to the class. In this case, other members of the class would act as the potential investors. The groups present their plan to the class and receive feedback | ||
| Lesson Focus | Develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. | ||
| Previous Knowledge | Learners recall related ideas, vocabulary or experiences from earlier lessons and everyday contexts. | ||
| Lesson Objective(s) | Describe the key idea in: Develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. Apply the idea through guided and independent learning activities. Demonstrate understanding through oral responses, written work or practical performance. | ||
| Essential Question(s) | What biomedical principle, process, risk or intervention is central to Develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. Project-Based Learning: Learners work in mixed-ability groups to develop a marketing plan to pitch a designed device or a specified device to the class. In this case, other members of the class would act as the potential investors. The groups present their plan to the class and receive feedback? What evidence, observation, device output or scientific information would help us make a sound biomedical decision? How can the lesson knowledge be applied safely and ethically to improve health, diagnosis, therapy, prevention or biomedical innovation? | ||
| Pedagogical Strategies | Collaborative Learning Problem-Based Learning Case-Based Learning Critical Observation Research/Inquiry-Based Learning Digital/Information Literacy Device/Workflow Analysis | ||
| Teaching & Learning Resources | Biomedical Science reference materials Whiteboard/markers Learners' notebooks Relevant diagrams/charts/models Projector Internet Textbook Medical device Images/models of diagnostic devices Hospital/laboratory workflow diagrams Images/models of therapeutic devices Therapy case scenarios Internet-enabled device where available Design brief/proposal sheets Credibility checklist for online sources | ||
| Key Notes on Differentiation | |||
| Content | Use labelled diagrams, simplified case cards, vocabulary supports, device images and stepwise prompts for learners who need additional support. Extend advanced learners with multi-factor cases, risk-benefit evaluation, source-credibility analysis, design constraints or deeper system interpretation. | ||
| Process | Use mixed-ability and gender-balanced grouping with clear roles such as observer, recorder, risk assessor, presenter or design lead. Where access to hospitals, laboratories or biomedical devices is limited, use curriculum-aligned images, videos, simulations, case data and virtual/printed workflows without changing the learning objective. | ||
| Product | Allow appropriate evidence such as risk maps, case analyses, mind maps, system diagrams, diagnostic/therapy comparison charts, research reports, design proposals or presentations. Assess biomedical accuracy, safety awareness, evidence use, scientific reasoning, ethical judgement, communication and ability to justify decisions. | ||
| Success Criteria | Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation. | ||
| Homework | Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator. | ||
| Lesson Activities | |||
| Stage | Teacher Activity | Learner Activity | Assessment / DoK |
| Starter10 minutes | Present a diagram, specimen, data set or everyday situation connected to develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors and ask learners what they observe. | Share prior knowledge, listen to peers and record the lesson question in their notebooks. | Not provided. |
| Activity 115 minutes | Use a labelled diagram, model, experiment, data table or safe demonstration to explain develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. | Observe carefully, record key terms and answer oral questions. | Ask learners to identify the key feature, variable, process or relationship. |
| Activity 220 minutes | Guide groups to observe, classify, measure, compare or explain evidence related to develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors. | Work in groups to complete the observation, classification, measurement or explanation task. | Review group responses for accurate science vocabulary and evidence. |
| Activity 310 minutes | Give a new case, data set or observation and ask learners to predict or explain the outcome. | Apply the concept to the new case and support the answer with evidence. | Use an exit task that asks for a prediction, explanation or calculation. |
| Lesson Closure | Summarise develop a marketing plan to pitch the designed device to potential investors and correct one common misconception using learner examples. State one thing learned and complete the exit response. | ||
