About the authors

A SECOND EDITION IS ALSO AVAILABLE FOR THE NEW CURRICULUM

Engage today’s Queensland science students with a resource package that effectively addresses the curriculum with fresh local content, a wide range of activities and innovative digital capabilities as it prepares Years 7–10 students for the new QCE science syllabuses.


Differentiated learning and a wide range of activities
The wide range of abilities and interests evident in Queensland classrooms is supported through the clear, student-friendly language, and developed and reinforced through a range of activities.

Quick checks and Explore! activities throughout will engage, support and extend every Year 7–10 student. Both long and short Try this activities for the classroom help explain and revise concepts. Data questions available at the end of each chapter help students apply their understanding and challenge them to analyse and interpret different forms of data linked to the chapter content. Teachers can also select questions from the graded, downloadable worksheets in each section to meet student abilities.

Hands-on activities reinforce concepts
Over 50 hands-on activities per year level offer both laboratory activities as well as longer investigations that develop students’ inquiry skills.

All Practicals in the series cover at least two of the Learning Areas from the Australian Curriculum and involve students using lab equipment and conducting analysis on their results. Investigations comprise more than one area of the experimental design as extended class or lab activities.

Specifically written for Queensland students
This NEW 7–10 series uses Queensland species or environments to demonstrate concepts where possible, helping students make connections in their science learning. Lead author Gemma Dale is a junior and senior level science teacher from Queensland with an Education Doctorate specialising in scientific literacy, making her particularly qualified to develop a Queensland series to effectively engage Year 7–10 students and prepare them for QCE science studies.

Prepares students for QCE Science studies

  • In the same way that QCAA uses cognitive verbs and follows Marzano’s Taxonomy for science courses, this series draws on these verbs and the section and chapter questions are organised into Retrieval, Comprehension, Analysis and Knowledge utilisation to improve student thinking. 
  • Students are provided a set of data at the end of each chapter and are asked to apply, analyse and interpret that data. This provides valuable skill development for the internal data test required in Years 11 and 12. 
  • The Investigations provided in this series develop students’ inquiry skills and allow for essential preparation for their scientific investigation in senior years. 

These features provide a continuum of learning for students as they transition from junior to senior sciences.

A SECOND EDITION IS ALSO AVAILABLE FOR THE NEW CURRICULUM

The Online Teaching Suite combines the Interactive Textbook powered by Cambridge Edjin and its rich digital resources with a suite of supplementary resources and a powerful Learning Management System when linked to students using the Interactive Textbook in a class.


Teacher support:

  • The Online Test Generator allows teachers to quickly create customised tests from a bank of questions. Teachers can also share their customised tests with others in the school, building a whole-school assessment bank. All tests can be printed or assigned online for automarking, and are suitable for assessment, homework tasks, practice quizzes and trial exams. Teachers also have access to two ready-made, downloadable tests per chapter with accompanying answer sheets. 
  • The Task Manager function can be used to create a Quick task, a Directed task or a task Template. The Directed task option allows teachers to set an achievement benchmark for measurable activities that directs students on an activity sequence appropriate to their score. Templates for task sequences can be created and applied across a number of chapters and multiple classes, saving teachers time in allocating activities. 
  • The Online Teaching Suite records student scores on quizzes, self-assessment scores and red flags raised by students in all sections, and end-of-chapter review questions. Reports on individual and class progress are available for download. Data from student Interactive Textbooks will directly feed to the Online Teaching Suite. 
  • Access to student Workspaces entries allows for efficient and time-saving monitoring of work and provides students with the opportunity to alert teachers to problems with specific questions. Teachers can choose to give students access to the solutions for the exercises online and also provide feedback to individuals on specific questions. 
  • A range of graded worksheets for developing both understanding and skills can be downloaded and used for homework or completed offline in class. Teacher also have access to the answers to the worksheet questions.
