Content
Environmental Science Curriculum Inquiry Senior Years is a hands-on unit that will prepare you to teach Earth and Environmental Science (based on the Australian senior secondary curriculum with comparison to other state and territory curricula).
This unit is offered via a series of modules each supported by learning materials and intensively offered seminars and, where appropriate, field excursions. Online students will be provided with support materials that will enable field excursions in local environments.
