- The new Study Design is comprehensively covered without overwhelming students - Content is signposted with explain icons that indicated need-to-know assessable material, with additional engage boxes exploring why a topic is important but their content is not assessable. Cross study specifications are integrated throughout the text with additional content available in the Interactive Textbook.
- The Study Design is broken down into Learning Intentions at the start of each chapter and listed as Success Criteria in a checklist at the end, linked to questions from the chapter review so students can tick off what they have mastered.
- Extensive assessment and exam preparation support includes valuable advice on how to approach exam questions, tips for completing assessment tasks such as multi-modal and oral presentations, modelling of logbook entries and poster samples, skills boxes, practice exams, material on scientific skills, and research strategies for the Scientific Investigation.
- Essential physics skills are built through print and video worked examples with explanations, rule and formula boxes, worksheet activities, animated PowerPoint diagrams, plus the combination of formative and summative check-in and section questions with chapter reviews and unit revision exercises to ensure students master the content.
- Teachers are supported by a range of tools in the Online Teaching Suite including a test generator, task manager and the Exam generator which allows teachers to create custom practice exams drawing on past VCAA questions and VCAA-style questions and filter by Area of Study, key term, question type and level of difficulty.
- Teachers also have access to a range of editable and downloadable resources, including SACs, practicals, activities and worksheets, curriculum grids, curated weblinks and chapter tests.
