Course Content
This course follows the 2008 Science 10 curriculum.
Processes of Science
It is expected that students will:
- demonstrate safe procedures
- perform experiments using the scientific method
- represent and interpret information in graphic form
- demonstrate scientific literacy
- demonstrate ethical, responsible, cooperative behaviour
- describe the relationship between scientific principles and technology
- demonstrate competence in the use of technologies specific to investigative procedures and research
Life Science: Sustainability of Ecosystems
It is expected that students will:
- explain the interaction of abiotic and biotic factors within an ecosystem
- assess the potential impacts of bioaccumulation
- explain various ways in which natural populations are altered or kept in equilibrium
Physical Science: Chemical Reactions and Radioactivity
It is expected that students will:
- differentiate between atoms, ions, and molecules using knowledge of their structure and components
- classify substances as acids, bases, or salts, based on their characteristics, name, and formula
- distinguish between organic and inorganic compounds
- analyse chemical reactions, including reference to conservation of mass and rate of reaction
- explain radioactivity using modern atomic theory
Physical Science: Motion
It is expected that students will:
- explain the relationship of displacement and time interval to velocity for objects in uniform motion
- demonstrate the relationship between velocity, time interval, and acceleration
Earth and Space Science: Energy Transfer in Natural Systems
It is expected that students will:
- explain the characteristics and sources of thermal energy
- explain the effects of thermal energy within the atmosphere
- evaluate possible causes of climate change and its impact on natural systems
Earth and Space Science: Plate Tectonics
It is expected that students will:
- analyse the processes and features associated with plate tectonics
- demonstrate knowledge of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory
