Workshop Overview:
Practical work is an important feature of the DP chemistry course. This workshop supports you in the development of a balanced and practical scheme of work that provides opportunities to assess students using the internal assessment criteria of the sciences subject group. You will examine various student samples to develop a clear understanding of the application of the internal assessment criteria and the moderation process. Ways in which teachers can scaffold teaching and learning to prepare students for internal assessment will also be explored. The workshop is suitable for experienced teachers who wish to improve their practical schemes of work as well as teachers new to teaching chemistry in the DP.
