Science: Today and Tomorrow - EDUC108

This unit is subject to a quota. Limited places are available. Please refer to the Faculty for further information

This unit provides students with opportunities to challenge their views about the nature of science, to engage with science in its many facets and to communicate ideas about science. Students are exposed to science enthusiasts and are encouraged to actively participate in hands-on practical work both inside and beyond the science laboratory. Learning and assessment strategies are designed to maximise student involvement and to build capacity in more collaborative approaches to increasing science understandings. The unit supports students to make the transition from passive to active learners and to take a more self-directed role in communicating science to a range of learners.
