COURSE DESCRIPTION
This major will develop your understanding of the core concepts, subject matter and content relationships of Physical Sciences as well as the skills and knowledge on how to teach it! This involves learning about how adolescents learn, acquiring and practicing a range of strategies to engage and motivate, and learning about how to cater for students from different backgrounds.
To understand the concepts behind Physical Sciences, a second teaching area of Mathematics is also required. Therefore, this major is combined with the second teaching area of Maths.
Secondary Science teachers (trained in Physics and Chemistry) are in high demand due to ongoing shortages in the STEM related fields.
You’ll learn in a range of environments, from lectures and tutorials to labs and a range of practical placements. You’ll also practice dealing with challenging behaviour, parent teacher interviews and other situations through our SimLabTM technology – a virtual classroom using actors and avatars, which is the only technology of its kind in WA.
Your future career
This course gives you the qualification you need to teach Physical Science secondary students, including teaching Physics and Chemistry to Year 11 and 12 ATAR student as well as General Science. Furthermore, the second learning area of Mathematics combined with this degree provides you with the qualification to teach up to and including Year 11 and 12 ATAR Mathematics Specialist.
