100% Aussie Made For Aussie Kids
 

Year 11 and 12 Sciences

Our panel identified the following particular problems for science:

• Concepts are too hard to grasp at a first hearing.
• Tasks are analytical and require development of new skills.
• Vocabulary is new and confusing.
• No time to go over the same lesson again in school.
• Students have difficulty identifying which concepts relate to a particular problem or field of study.

The aims of Kinetic Education are to:

• provide a solid back-up to class-room learning throughout the year;
• give Australian students an in-depth knowledge of scientific and mathematical principles;
• guide students through the syllabus so that they can prepare for exams with confidence;
• identify knowledge gaps and work on improving those areas;
• provide a revision system for major exams;
• assist students to catch up on work missed;
• allow brighter students to forge ahead.

Year 11 & 12 Chemistry

Chemistry is concerned with the physical and chemical properties of substances, the nature of matter, and the study of chemical reactions and processes. This course is intended to provide students with a balanced perspective of chemical science which will enable them to understand and interpret the chemistry of their surroundings and appreciate the impact of chemical knowledge and technology on society

The course attempts to provide a balance between useful facts, important concepts and theories. Concepts and theories are introduced to facilitate an understanding of the properties of substances, reactions and processes.

Students can use the software throughout the year to reinforce class-work or for exam revision. As even one per cent in the exam can decide whether you get into the course of your choice, Kinetic Education can provide the strategy to boost up your marks and your career options.

“This program provides an incentive for students to stick at it and improve their scores, resulting in a feeling of achievement. They wouldn’t get this sort of feed-back from normal work,” Chemistry teacher.

Year 11 & 12 Physics

Physics is one of the most challenging subjects taught in school because it combines science with mathematics. However, it is one of the subjects which attracts extra TER marks, so that it is popular with students attempting entry into Medicine, Dentistry, Physiotherapy or Engineering, all of which require top scores for tertiary entrance.

Not much Physics is covered prior to year 11, so students can feel overwhelmed and bewildered. This course lays particular emphasis on the Key Knowledge for each outcome and on using the Physical Laws and Formulae to solve exam style problems.

“The needs of our current group of year 12 students were such that our purchase of the Physics program was very welcomed by staff, students and parents alike. Your product is much valued by the students using it,” Head of Science.

Year 11 and 12 Biology

Biology doesn’t require any mathematics but it does involve acquiring a very extensive vocabulary, and the development of new concepts and ideas. Biology is the study of living organisms and the reactions between organisms and their environments. And, of course, choosing Biology as a course can help the student to make informed decisions about healthy living as it covers the nature of infection and disease and how our bodily organs work.

Science subjects present special difficulties to students because there are many complex concepts to learn and understand in a very short period of time. Unfamiliarity with the vocabulary is also a major problem in biology and can leave students totally confused about what they need to know. We designed the programs to help students keep pace with the work throughout the year and to revise with confidence before the exam.

Our biology programs have been used extensively in universities as revision for first year nursing students, being highly recommended by their lecturers.

"I found the Biology program to be a great help in studying for my year 11 HSC assessments. In fact, it got my standard up to 2nd in the year in year 11 in my school." A. Cook. NSW student.

"The program has helped me considerably as I am not exactly the brightest student and I feel if I have the information on a specific topic in front of me I can understand much better ..it sticks in my head better than any lecture." P. Miles, nursing student, La Trobe University
