Cambridge VIC Science Yr 10 (Print & Digital) 2E

NEW in this edition:

• The new curriculum is delivered through inspiring content, clear and highly visual text design, improved readability and simplified language to engage all students
• Science as a Human Endeavour elaborations are signposted in the curriculum box at the start of chapters, and updated Science as a Human Endeavour boxes throughout help students connect the content with the real-world to fully appreciate the value of learning (and loving) science.
• Sustainability content has been added across all year levels, including Explore! activities in each chapter that consider the sustainability aspect of key concepts.
• The skills chapter in each year level now explores the importance of ethics in science and the real world, with content chapters exploring ethical considerations through explicit material such as organ donation and genetic testing.
• Refined hands-on activities in every chapter offer both short laboratory activities and longer investigations that develop students’ inquiry skills. Many of these practical activities include a research component that meets the requirements of the Science Inquiry strand and can also be used as extension material. All practicals have been completely revised and enhanced by a lab technician to ensure scientific accuracy and easy application for students across all year levels.
• Narrated practical videos walk students through experiment set-up and execution, and can be used by remote or absent students, or to familiarise themselves with the techniques and processes before attempting the practical in class. Videos are indicated by an icon in the print book.
• Learning goals at the start of each section outline what students can expect to learn and are linked to an end-of-chapter checklist that helps students keep track of their progress and revise chapter content.
• Comprehensive teacher notes and a curated internet resource list for each chapter supports teachers in finding reliable information relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples knowledge and practices.
• NEW editable PowerPoint chapter summaries support teachers to deliver the new curriculum and summarise the focus area dot points for each chapter.
• Even more assessment opportunities to support and measure student growth include NEW adaptive pre-tests and post-tests for every chapter and graded multiple-choice questions in both online and downloadable chapter tests to support varying student ability.
