Three-dimensional learning progressions (3DLPs) have received wide-scale attention in depicting learning pathways that students travel as they progress toward knowledge-in-use in making sense of phenomena and solving problems. Using a design-based research approach, this study put efforts into developing a 3DLP of matter, interaction, and energy at the middle school level and presents the essential design principles for developing 3DLPs. Our chapter offers an illuminating exploration of our design-based research, shedding light on the fundamental design principles and systematic processes involved in developing 3DLPs. By identifying design principles and establishing a systematic process, we unlock new perspectives and approaches to shape the future of designing and implementing 3DLPs to support student knowledge-in-use development.
