The Tuva
Companion
for Middle School
Ready-to-Use Data Tools for Every Grade 6–8 OpenSciEd Classroom
Tuva augments the most data-rich parts of OpenSciEd middle school units. Students work with dynamic data tools that help them analyze evidence, test ideas, and explain phenomena like scientists do.
Digitized OpenSciEd Investigations
Science investigations are powerful—but, no matter what curricula you use, managing student data collection on paper can slow momentum. Tuva digitizes investigation tables and worksheets so students can:
- Enter lab data directly into the platform
- Immediately visualize class results
- Revise explanations as new evidence emerges
- Efficiently move from organizing data to making sense of it
This creates a smooth bridge between hands-on labs and scientific explanation.

Dynamic Data Tasks
Graphs Made Dynamic
Many OpenSciEd lessons include valuable datasets in tabular or graphic formats. Tuva has converted these into fully interactive datasets so students can:
- Sort, filter, and group information
- Switch between graphs with one click
- Investigate patterns across multiple variables
- Explore data like real scientists do
Tuva Data Tasks expand the ways students can investigate secondhand, scientific data.
