Theory for Year 11 Chemistry Teachers
Event description
This workshop is designed for teachers new to teaching Year 11 Chemistry plus those who would like to refamiliarise themselves with the content, background theory and make connections across the different modules of the Year 11 Chemistry syllabus. We will be unpacking:
- Properties and Structures of Matter
- Introduction to Quantitative Chemistry
- Reactive Chemistry
- Drivers of Reactions
- Opportunities for Depth Studies
In addition, we will connect the 'assumed knowledge' to the HSC syllabus.
This workshop can contribute to 5 hours of ‘Elective PD’ addressing 2.1.2 from the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers towards maintaining Proficient Teacher Accreditation in NSW.
A Certificate of Completion will be sent to Graduate Teachers for their evidence
