G11 Biology COURSE OUTLINE 

Course Title: Biology

Course Code: G11 Biology

Grade: 11

Credit Value: 1.0

Course Type: University

Prerequisite: Science, Grade 10, Academic

 

Course Description

This course promotes students' understanding of biological systems. Students will have the opportunity to gain a better understanding of biodiversity, genetic processes, evolution, animal structure and function. Students will also learn about the anatomy, growth, and function of plants. This course focuses on the theoretical aspects of the study and helps students improve their knowledge and skills related to scientific research.

 

Unit Titles and Descriptions

Diversity of Living Things

This unit will help students understand that all living things can be classified by the principles of taxonomy and phylogeny. Students will learn sampling,classification techniques, and the principles of scientific classification. Students will analyze the impact of human activities on biodiversity in ecosystems.  21 hours

 

Evolution

In this unit, students will demonstrate an understanding of the theory of evolution, natural selection, punctuated equilibrium. Students will also analyse the economic and environmental implications of artificial selection technology, and evaluate the impact of environmental changes on natural selection and species at risk.  21 hours

 

 

Genetic Processes

This unit will provide students with genetic processes. Students will demonstrate an understanding that genetic and genomic research can have both social and environmental implications. Students will also analyse data to solve genetic problems. They will understand how variability and diversity of living organisms results from the distribution of genetic material during the process of meiosis.  22 hours

Animals: Structure and Function

In this unit, students will demonstrate an understanding of different organs, organs structures, organ functions and how groups of organs with specific structures and functions work together as systems. They will investigate the functional responses and relationships between major organ systems. Moreover students will also be asked how to uses technology to maintain health and the relation to the society.  22 hours

Plants: Anatomy, Growth and Function

In this unit, students will demonstrate an understanding of plants, specialised plants structures, distinct plants functions, and functions that enable them to respond and adapt to their environment.  Students will consider the importance of the plant variety to the survival and sustainability of ecosystems. They will investigate the structures of plant tissues and factors affecting growth.  22 hours

Final Assessment - 2 hours

Exam: This is a proctored exam worth 30% of your final grade.   

Total      110 hours

G12 Chemistry COURSE OUTLINE 

Course Title: Chemistry

Grade: 12

Course Type: University

Credit Value: 1.0

Prerequisite: Chemistry, Grade 11, University

Course Description:

This course helps students to understand chemistry through the study of chemistry including organic chemistry, chemical systems, and energy changes. Students will explore the equilibrium, electrochemistry, rates of reaction, atomic and molecular structure. Students will further develop problem-solving and laboratory skills as they investigate chemical processes. The course will also refine their ability to communicate scientific information. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of chemical technology on the environment.
