Science for General Certificate of Secondary Education Modules: Units 1-4 (The sciences for GCSE)

Suitable as a complete course for modular science in its own right, this series for high attainers can also be used in conjunction with "Modular Science for GCSE" to provide a course for the widest ability range. The modules provide coverage of National Curriculum content, with historical material which emphasizes the steps involved in changing scientific opinion. An assessment and resource pack helps teachers to develop a scheme of work and assessment. AT 1 is covered in detail, and the activities provided also deal with many aspects of ATs 2-4. Science is developed in realistic contexts, so that students can immediately see the relevance of potentially difficult scientific concepts. Explanations for scientific and mathematical relationships help to consolidate information, and challenging questions encourage students to apply and extend what they have learned. The series consists of four compendium volumes which each contain four modules, 12 packs which each contain ten copies of one of the 12 modules, and the teacher's assessment and resource pack.
