The theory and concepts provided through on-line material and lessons will be complemented by a wide range of hands-on laboratory activities designed to teach laboratory skills, techniques, data analysis, experiment design hypothesis formulation, problem-solving and communication skills.

Interactive on-line learning will form a key component of the unit. On-line lessons will be paired with on-line learning activities to consolidate concepts and check understanding.

Facilitated by educators, students will collaboratively work through a range of activities to explore and extend concepts introduced in the on-line lessons.
