In grade 12 at kelvin high school, you may register for any of the following courses. Please see your grade 11 science teachers or your guidance counsellor to ensure you register for any prerequisites you might need for post secondary study.
The core of this course deals with genetics and heredity, evolution, biodiversity and classification. Students will learn about related societal issues and applications to daily life. Completion of BIOR3S is strongly recommended.
Recommended prerequisites: Chemistry 11 and either Applied Math or Pre-Calculus Math Through participation in co-operative experiments and other classroom experiences, students will develop skills for the safe handling of materials, careful observation and measurement, effective problem solving and precise communication. This course is designed to prepare students for further study in chemistry at the university level and to develop the attitudes and abilities that enable students to become informed decision makers who are knowledgeable about the role of chemistry in the world around them. Topics covered in the course include: atomic structure, equilibrium, acids and bases, electrochemistry and aqueous reactions.
Recommended prerequisite: Physics 11 and either Applied or Pre-Calculus Mathematics In this course, students complete their study of mechanics with the following topics: dynamics of circular motion, projectile motion, momentum and energy. This is followed by a detailed analysis of electricity and magnetism and an introduction to modern physics, through topics applicable to medical physics.
Ce cours traite la génétique et l’hérédité, l’évolution, la biodiversité et la classification des organismes. Les élèves apprendront au sujet des enjeux sociaux et les applications de la matière étudiée à la vie quotidienne. La possession d’un crédit en BIOF3S est fortement suggéré.
