The Science 7-9 program is co-designed with and facilitated by the University of Melbourne. The program delves into the Australian Science Curriculum 7-9 and its conceptual framework, while also incorporating new perspectives from the forthcoming SA Curriculum: Science. You’ll develop your capability as a secondary years school science specialist, exploring strategies to engage learners meaningfully in science and increase their scientific inquiry skills.
This course has inspired me to be more creative and think outside the academic box
when teaching science.
