Standard | Description | Correlation Type |
---|---|---|
NGSS-HS-DCI-PS4.A-2 | Information can be digitized (e.g., a picture stored as the values of an array of pixels); in this form, it can be stored reliably in computer memory and sent over long distances as a series of wave pulses. | |

NGSS-HS-DCI-PS4.A-3 | Waves can add or cancel one another as they cross, depending on their relative phase (i.e., relative position of peaks and troughs of the waves), but they emerge unaffected by each other. | |
NGSS-HS-DCI-PS4.A-3-1 | Waves can add or cancel one another as they cross, depending on their relative phase (i.e., relative position of peaks and troughs of the waves). | SB Content SB Content SB Content |

NGSS-HS-DCI-PS4.C | Information Technologies and Instrumentation | |
NGSS-HS-DCI-PS4.C-1 | Multiple technologies based on the understanding of waves and their interactions with matter are part of everyday experiences in the modern world (e.g., medical imaging, communications, scanners) and in scientific research. They are essential tools for producing, transmitting, and capturing signals and for storing and interpreting the information contained in them. | |
