Case study outline

This website presents individual lessons comprising of worksheets, research tasks, videos, primary and secondary data collection. These resources are designed to be delivered in one of two ways;

A) Delivered through teacher centered learning, with the variety of digital media presented to a class through the use of an interactive whiteboard. This format is expected to require approximately 20 hours of in-class time.

B) Delivered as a student centered research task, where students work in small groups to investigate one system, before presenting their findings to the rest of the class. This format is expected to require approximately 10 hours of in-class time.

A five hour fieldwork day with the IEEC, examining how natural processes, cycles and circulations have shaped the Minnamurra River, is integrated into the case study and student work package.

The sample assessment task assesses the case study and associated fieldwork via the development of a student field report.
