Science by Doing is an online secondary school program presenting science in an engaging, guided inquiry-based approach to lift student interest and understanding. It is free to all Australian students and teachers and comprehensively covers the Australian Curriculum for high school Science Years 7-10.
Responses to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic are evolving as the spread of the virus continues in Australia and globally. Teachers in schools across Australia are responding to the need to offer online learning lessons to students in self-isolation, however, distance education teachers have been successfully using Science by Doing for remote learning long before the pandemic.
