Overview

This module has been written to support the New South Wales Stage 6 (Years 11 and 12) Investigating Science course. It uses the STELR Sustainable Housing Equipment sets.

Depth studies are designed to provide opportunities for students to:

• consolidate their learning
• develop competence and confidence in relation to their knowledge and skills
• foster creativity by allowing students to apply their knowledge and skills to new situations.

A depth study is any type of investigation/activity that a student completes individually or collaboratively that allows the further development of one or more concepts found within or inspired by the syllabus. It may be one investigation/activity or a series of investigations/activities.

More information on the Investigating Science Depth Study can be found here.
