Study Notes
Australian Curriculum and Victorian Curriculum Alignment
- The Victorian Curriculum: Science is integrated into this new edition.
- Additional content provides flexibility for tailoring the approach to different needs.
- Extension and revision opportunities are included as options.
Student Book Enhancements
- The content has been reviewed by a literacy consultant.
- Increased accessibility through improved clarity and scaffolding.
- Strengthened question and instruction sets.
- Updated design for improved readability and navigation.
- Retains a flexible approach to teaching and learning.
- Combines inquiry-based learning, STEM, and practical investigations.
Light and Colour
- Wavelengths of visible light are less than one-thousandth of a millimetre.
- This is about one-hundredth the width of a human hair.
- A red apple reflects red light, absorbing the other colours in the visible spectrum.
- Colour filters absorb different colours, affecting what we see.
- Primary colours combined in pairs produce secondary colours (magenta, cyan, and yellow).
- Combinations of cyan, magenta, and yellow can produce every colour.
Colour Vision and Colour Blindness
- Three types of cone cells (red, green, and blue) detect color.
- Normal vision requires all three cone types.
- 4% of people are born with some form of color-blindness.
STEM Activities and Applications
- Example activity: Helping a colour-blind person choose between a red, yellow, or green apple.
- Technologies: Televisions, video cameras, mobile phones use RGB (red, green, blue) color models.
- Binary digits/Nibbles: A series of four binary digits (half a byte).
- 8-digit decimal numbers: These can have values between 0 and 99,999,999.
