This unit introduces students to a wide range of fundamental science concepts, not only relevant for themselves but also for the teaching of primary school children. Important conceptual ideas and processes, including the scientific method, developing scientific literacy and the ability to communicate scientific understandings are fundamental to the unit. Students will explore theoretical concepts and contemporary issues from the disciplines of chemistry, biology and physics in ways which provide a lens to critically examine the natural environment. -- Course Website
