Comprehensively meets the requirements of the new Study Design
Provides tools to scaffold learning
Our experienced author team have comprehensively reviewed the new Study Design to ensure these resources reflect and support key changes such as:
- An increased focus on sustainability and green chemistry;
- The importance of transition from linear to circular economies;
- Innovations in chemistry such as those in polymer manufacturing, the design of cells and the development of ‘green’ hydrogen;
- The analysis of applications of redox reactions in society: corrosion and use of primary cells;
- The inclusion of medicinal chemistry content.
- The formative and summative check-in and section questions for each section can be answered in the Interactive Textbook and teachers can choose to give students access to the suggested responses to self-assess. Teachers can view student responses and provide direct feedback in the Interactive Textbook.
- The Task Manager in the Online Teaching Suite also helps teachers to allocate work geared to a student’s progress and ability.
Exam Generator – easily create custom practice exams using past VCAA questions
Saves teachers time with extensive downloadable resources
- The Online Teaching Suite provides downloadable practicals and modifiable documents for experiments, open-ended investigations or ideas for activities that meet the requirements of the Study Design.
- Laboratory investigations and risk assessment are provided for all practicals.
- A range of editable worksheets with suggested responses can be used for homework or revision.
- Teacher notes in the Interactive Textbook provide further support including details on a topic, links to websites or ideas for further activities.
- Downloadable curriculum grids, teaching programs, checklists, and chapter tests and answers all support your delivery of the curriculum.
This powerful new feature allows teachers to create custom practice exams using previous VCAA questions plus additional VCAA-style questions with mark allocation and solutions. Teachers can search the question bank by key words and filter question selection by topic, degree of difficulty and question type. Exams can be printed and taken under exam conditions or used for revision, and multiple-choice questions can be completed online and auto-marked.
