This subject enables students to develop knowledge and skills which support future study in general university programs including Nursing, Allied Health, Education and Science degrees. It introduces students to a comprehension of the different disciplines which have traditionally been categorised as science. Students learn to think of science as a process rather than an outcome and to understand the elements and steps which constitute the scientific method. Students develop a hypothesis and undertake experimental design. Assessment is comprised of a digital journal which records the experiment from initial observations through to reporting on findings.
