Learning outcomes
Organise and incorporate relevant elements from multiple SCSA documents, including senior secondary science curricula, both ATAR and General into secondary science teaching programs.
Prioritise adjustments to maximise effect of differentiated learning environment whilst maintaining high standard of science learning activities.
Synthesise science programs, assessments and comprehensive lesson plans incorporating safety, individual student needs, prior learning, ICT and laboratory equipment availability.
Identify factors - international, national, humanitarian and social - that contribute to the development of legislation, policy and practice in laboratory settings and apply these to secondary science programs.
Utilise professional agencies that support high quality teaching (eg STAWA) in regards to development of teaching materials and identifying future professional development.
Compare moderation of (fictional) high school student assessments with other professionals to arrive at comparable judgements and develop adequate student and parent feedback.
