10SCA - Science Extension

10 Science Extension- This course is for students in the Year 10 Extension Studies class.

Studying Science allows students to investigate, develop an understanding of and think critically about the Living, Physical and Material world that they inhabit.  The critical thinking, problem-solving skills and knowledge gained will allow students to understand and make informed decisions about current issues in Science and Technology, such as Nanotechnology and Genetic Engineering.  It will also teach students how to communicate, solve problems, collect and organise knowledge; knowledge which will continue to develop.

This is the same content and assessment as the 10SCI course.  There will be opportunities for extension in these topics during the year, either through extra content or deeper thinking.
