Teacher in Charge: Ms Couper
Lessons will be split between two learning styles: university-style lectures and hands-on activities to broaden the understanding of key concepts.
There is one trip planned for semester one: a visit to the University of Auckland medical school.
Semester 1
Two internal standards:
1. Demonstrate understanding of how an animal maintains a stable internal environment
2. Demonstrate understanding of human manipulations of genetic transfer and its biological implications
Semester 2
Two internal standards:
1. Integrate biological knowledge to develop an informed response to a socio-scientific issue
2. Carry out a practical investigation in a biological context, with guidance
