It is also my aim to try and make stage 4-5 syllabus more inquiry-based. The page HatziScience for NSW webpage is in development to assist students in Investigating Science in supplementing content knowledge and skills. This has been put together by Dianne Firth, at St Mark’s Catholic College Stanhope Gardens. Click on the image to go to the site.Ĭlick on the image below to view the resource. Other Investigating Science websites SCIENCEWITHMATĪnother website in development for Investigating Science with excellent resources covering all aspects of this course. Warning: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are warned that this webpage and may contain images, voices or names of deceased persons in photographs, film/video, audio recordings or printed material. As Science is built on observations and inferences, therefore, it is logical to include the contributions that ATSI people have made to understanding aspects of our environment.Ī great link that introduces readers to the many aspects that ATSI science and technology. There are many ASTI perspectives dotted through this course. Many ideas on this page have been inspired by the collaboration on this page from many dedicated teachers. Teachers can find useful information and support on the Facebook page for Investigating Science.
Introduction to Investigating science Powerpoint for students and parents. Investigating science syllabus Introduction to the course
I have put this resource together, using many different sources to aid teachers and students. My name is Despina Hatzimanolis, and I am an Investigating Science teacher. Personally, I believe that this will become the most popular science course taken by senior students in the future. This course may also lead the student into pursuing extension science (the link that that syllabus here), where they can pursue their passion even further. There is a strong emphasis on building critical thinking and research skills, and students will be encouraged to develop strong communication skills. There are 30 hours (15h in other science courses) dedicated to depth studies which give students a unique opportunity to pursue their personal interests while gaining a scientific understanding of an area of their interest. It concerns all aspects and disciplines of Science, however, unlike other science courses, the focus is on developing scientific skills needed in practising Science. The FarLabs project is led by the Department of Physics at La Trobe University in collaboration with James Cook University, Curtin University, Quantum Victoria, V3 Alliance, and ANSTO.Investigating Science is a new HSC course for NSW students beginning in 2018. Please direct all enquiries to highly recommend testing this remote laboratory on your school’s equipment before planning a lesson with your class. Teachers need to register using this link before using the remote laboratory. Students can access a live data feed showing the count rate from a Geiger counter placed at a selected distance away from a radiation source. The schools in this study have focused mission statements that guide lead- ership and decision-making and serve to align the content, curriculum, and teacher. The "Inverse Square Law" experiment demonstrates how the amount of radiation decreases with increasing distance from a radiation source.
A live data feed shows the count rate from a Geiger counter placed above the selected radioactive source. Students can choose to pair one of four sources (alpha, beta, gamma, and unknown) with one of five absorbers, including no absorber at all.
The “Turntable” experiment illustrates the penetrating power of different forms of radiation.
