The Good Practice Guides for the Science Threshold Learning Outcomes were published in 2013 with real examples of use from Australian universities. In the guides you will find:
- about this learning outcome: literature review
- where to find more: resources
- real examples: case studies
- what’s happening next: future directions
Science Good Practice Guide 2013 TLO1: Understanding Science
Science Good Practice Guide 2013 TLO2: Scientific Knowledge
Science Good Practice Guide 2013 TLO3: Inquiry and Problem-solving
Science Good Practice Guide 2013 TLO4: Communication
