Questioning and Predicting Outcomes A student: develops and evaluates questions and hypotheses for scientific investigation Content Students: develop and evaluate inquiry questions and hypotheses to identify a concept that can be investigated scientifically, involving primary and secondary data (ACSBL001, ACSBL061, ACSBL096) modify questions and hypotheses to reflect new evidence Planning Investigations Outcomes A student: designs and evaluates investigations in to obtain primary and secondary data and information BIO11/12-2 Content Students: assess risks, consider ethical issues and select appropriate materials and technologies when designing and planning an investigation (ACSBL031, ACSBL097) justify and evaluate the use of variables and experimental controls to ensure that a valid procedure is developed that allows for the reliable collection of data (ACSBL002) evaluate and modify an investigation in response to new evidence Conducting Investigations Outcomes A student: conducts investigations to collect valid and reliable primary and secondary data and information BIO11/12-3 Content Students: employ and evaluate safe work practices and manage risks (ACSBL031) use appropriate technologies to ensure and evaluate accuracy select and extract information from a wide range of reliable secondary sources and acknowledge them using an accepted referencing style
