In Science 10, the skills, processes and attitudes of science are woven into three main areas: Life Science, Physical Science, and Earth and Space Science. Science 10 is designed for self-paced independent learners as well as students in regular classrooms. Course modules may be taken in any order, as each is independent of the others.
Science 10 is available in print or online delivery formats. The Science 10 Media CD is a required resource for the print course. It contains all the multimedia available in the online course, including animations, video demonstrations and interactive activities. In addition, the course website has useful links that students may access for further information on a variety of related topics. Access to the course website is not required for course completion.
Students should have access to the Science Orientation Skills (SOS) Package, which is available in print and online formats. This package presents key concepts such as scientific literacy, methodology, and safety as well as guidelines and examples of lab reports, research strategies and formulas. Each module has a module test. In addition to the module tests, Modules 1 and 5 have module projects.
