Example of Teacher GRASPS
Are Fruits and Vegetables Really Made of Cells?
Goal: To demonstrate that a given food is cellular and be able to clearly communicate this fact
Role: You are a scientist competing for a spot on the next space flight. In order to win your spot on the team, you must prove to the selection committee that you are the best scientist for the job. To do this, you must design an experiment that will demonstrate whether or not newly discovered planetoid organisms are cellular or non-cellular.
Audience: NASA space flight selection committee
Situation: The purpose of this new expedition is to explore a recently found planetoid that is capable of supporting human life. Initial surveys indicate that this planetoid is filled with plantlike organisms, many of which appear to bear edible fruit-like growths. Once scientists arrive, they will need to determine if these growths are edible by humans. Your task is to select a food common on earth – apple, pear, potato, celery, banana, squash, tomato, turnip, radish, cucumber – and design and carry out an experiment that will demonstrate that the food is or is not composed of cells (the first step in determining edibility). You are restricted to the use of only these materials: compound microscope, slides and cover slips, iodine and methylene blue stains, plant dissection equipment, cotton swabs, beakers, paper towels, and toothpicks. You must convince the selection committee that your process accurately shows the presence or absence of cells.
Product: Once you have determined that the food that you chose is or is not cellular you will demonstrate this fact to the committee by visually showing them your evidence and by drawing an accurately labeled diagram of the food showing the presence or absence of cells. A written summary of your findings is included. Standards: See attached rubric.
