Work Requirements

Students should take part in the activities suggested throughout the teaching and learning sequence, all of which are designed to support the anticipated learning outcomes.

Reflection

Opportunities to reflect on ideas and issues which interest students are bound to arise throughout the teaching and learning. Some teachers find it useful to have a formal 'reflections' section at the conclusion of the series of lessons. In this way students and teacher are given a chance to talk, for example, about highlights of the 'journey' and about other directions this study might lead.
