Sciences
SNC2P Science, Grade 10
This course enables students to develop a deeper understanding of
concepts in biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics;
to develop further their practical skills in scientific design and
conduct investigations into everyday problems and issues related
to ecological sustainability, chemical reactions, weather systems,
and motion.
SBI3C Biology College Preparation, Grade 11
This course focuses on the processes involved in biological systems.
Students will learn concepts and theories as they conduct investigation
in the areas of cellular biology, microbiology, animal anatomy and
physiology, plant structure and physiology and environmental science.
Emphasis will be placed on the practical application of concepts,
and on the skills needed for further study in various branches of
the life sciences and related fields.
SBI3U Biology University/College Preparation, Grade 11
This course furthers students’ understanding of
the processes involved in biological systems. Students will study
cellular functions,
genetic continuity, internal systems and regulation, the diversity
of living things, and the anatomy, growth, and functions of plants.
The course focuses on the theoretical aspects of the topics under
study, and helps students refine skills related to scientific investigation.
SBI4U Biology University/College Preparation, Grade 12
This course provides students with the opportunity for in-depth
study of the concepts and processes associated with biological
systems. Students will study theory and conduct investigations
in the areas of metabolic processes, molecular genetics, homeostasis,
evolution, and population dynamics. Emphasis will be placed on
achievement of the detailed knowledge and refined skills needed
for further study in various branches of the life sciences and
related fields.
SCH3U Chemistry University/College Preparation, Grade 11
This course focuses on the concepts and theories that form the
basis of modern chemistry. Students will
study the behaviours of solids, liquids, gases, and solutions;
investigate changes and relationships in
chemical systems; and explore how chemistry is used in developing
new products and processes that
affect our lives and our environment. Emphasis will also be placed
on the importance of chemistry in
other branches of science.
SCH4U Chemistry University Preparation, Grade 12
This course enables students to deepen their understanding
of chemistry through the study of organic chemistry, energy
changes and rates
of reaction, chemical systems and equilibrium, electrochemistry,
and atomic and molecular structure. Students will further develop
problem-solving and laboratory skills as they investigate chemical
processes, at the same time refining their ability to communicate
scientific information. Emphasis will be placed on the importance
of chemistry in daily life, and on evaluating the impact of
chemical technology on the environment.
SPH3U Physics University/College Preparation, Grade 11
In this course students develop an understanding of the
basic concepts of physics through an analysis of
the interrelationships between physics and technology, and a consideration
of the impact of technological
applications of physics on society and the environment. Students
study the laws of dynamics and explore
different kinds of forces, the quantification and forms of energy
(mechanical, sound, light, thermal, and
electrical), and the way energy is transformed and transmitted.
They develop scientific-inquiry skills as
they verify accepted laws and solve both assigned problems and
those emerging from their investigations.
PPZ3O Health for Life, Grade 11
This course helps students develop a personalized approach to healthy living. Students will examine the factors that affect their own health and the health of individuals as members of the community. They will learn about the components of the Vitality approach to healthy living - an initiative that promotes healthy eating, an active lifestyle, and a positive self-image. Throughout this course, students will develop the skills necessary to take charge of and improve their own health, as well as to encourage others to lead healthy lives. |
