This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Kathryn D'Arcy - Ass1, Lesson 4 Resource Choices Es3e:Students discuss different viewpoints people may use to weigh criteria in making decisions about the use of a major non-renewable resource found in Australia. ES3f: Students outline the choices that need to be made when considering whether to use scientific and technological advances to obtain resource from Earth's spheres. ???? Lesson 4 Ecosystem Management LW2f:Students evaluate some examples in ecosystems,of strategies used to balance conserving, protecting and maintaining the quality and sustainability of the environment with human activities and needs, Lesson 1 Communities LW2a:Students recall that ecosystems consist of communities of interdependant organisms and abiotic components of the environment LW2b: Students outline using examples how matter is cycled through ecosystems such as nitrogen ???? Lesson 2 Food Webs LW2c: Students describe how energy flows through ecosystems,including inout and output through food webs LW2d: Students analyse how changes in some biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem effect populations and/or communities, Stage 6 Preliminary Course 8.4 Water Issues Water Resources (8.4 Water Issues - Parts 1 and 4) Water is important in maintaining Australian environments. The protection of water quality against potential effects of contamination is important in guarding the integrity of those environments, Lesson 3 Resource Conservation & Management ES3d:Students investigate some strategies used by people to conserve and manage non-renewable resources, eg recycling and alternative use of natural and made resources ???? Lesson 4 Resource Choices Es3e:Students discuss different viewpoints people may use to weigh criteria in making decisions about the use of a major non-renewable resource found in Australia. ES3f: Students outline the choices that need to be made when considering whether to use scientific and technological advances to obtain resource from Earth's spheres., Lesson 1 Communities LW2a:Students recall that ecosystems consist of communities of interdependant organisms and abiotic components of the environment LW2b: Students outline using examples how matter is cycled through ecosystems such as nitrogen ???? Lesson 2 Examples of Introduced Species Students discuss examples of introduced aquatic or terrestrial plants or animals to identify requirements, distribution and human mediation, Sustainability NSW BoS Stage 6 Earth & Environmental Science Syllabus Stage 6, Classification LW1 There are differences within and between groups of organisms, classification helps organise this diversity. SC4-14LW A student relates the structure and function of living things to their classification, survival and reproduction Lesson 1 Why do we classify? LW1a: Students identify reasons for classifying things Lw1b: Students classify a variety of living things based on similarities and differences in structural features, Lesson 1 Why do we classify? LW1a: Students identify reasons for classifying things Lw1b: Students classify a variety of living things based on similarities and differences in structural features ???? Lesson 2 Classification in Practice LW1c: Students use simple keys to identify a range of plants and animals LW1d: Students identify some examples of groups of microorganisms, Water Resources (8.4 Water Issues - Parts 1 and 4) Water is important in maintaining Australian environments. The protection of water quality against potential effects of contamination is important in guarding the integrity of those environments P8: A student discusses the interplay between internal and external forces which constantly reshape the Earth's surface P10: A student describes human impact on the local environment Lesson 1 How much water? Students outline an estimate of Earth's total water budget and the percentage available for terrestrial organisms, Lesson 3 Why are they here? Students discuss the reasons why different groups of people may have introduced plants and animals into the Australian environment ???? Lesson 4 Friend or Foe? Students discuss the reasons why different groups of people may have different opinions on the presence of an introduced organism as a pest, Lesson 4 Ecosystem Management LW2f:Students evaluate some examples in ecosystems,of strategies used to balance conserving, protecting and maintaining the quality and sustainability of the environment with human activities and needs ???? Lesson 4 Groundwater Students outline problems that may occur in ground water systems, such as pollution, salt water intrusion and ground salinity, and give exampoles of these problems occurring in Australian environments, Resource Use ES3 Scientific knowledge influences the choices people make in regard to use and management of the Earth's resources SC4-13ES A student explains how advances in scientific understanding of processes that occur within and on the Earth, influence the choices people make about resource use and management Lesson 1 Renewable or non-renewable ES3a: Students classify a range of the Earth's resources as renewable or non-renewable ES3b: Students outline features of some non-renewable resources, including metal ores and fossil fuels, Sustainability NSW BoS K-10 Science syllabus Stage 5, Lesson 1 Why do we classify? LW1a: Students identify reasons for classifying things Lw1b: Students classify a variety of living things based on similarities and differences in structural features ???? Lesson 2 Food Webs LW2c: Students describe how energy flows through ecosystems,including inout and output through food webs LW2d: Students analyse how changes in some biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem effect populations and/or communities, Lesson 4 Ecosystem Management LW2f:Students evaluate some examples in ecosystems,of strategies used to balance conserving, protecting and maintaining the quality and sustainability of the environment with human activities and needs ???? Lesson 3 Why are they here? Students discuss the reasons why different groups of people may have introduced plants and animals into the Australian environment, Stage 6 HSC Course 9.5 Introduced Species and the Environment Introduced Species (9.5 Introduced Species and the Australian Environment- Part 1) The introduction of new species of plants or animals tothe Australian environment causes great change to established and balanced ecosystems; as well, it causes degradation to the physical environment., Sustainability NSW BoS K-10 Science syllabus Stage 5, Lesson 3 Fins, legs or leaves? LW1e: Students outline the structural features used to group living things, including plants, animals, fungi and bacteria ???? Lesson 4 Adaptations LW1.f Students explain how the features of some Australian plants and animals are adaptations for survival and reproduction in their environment, Introduced Species (9.5 Introduced Species and the Australian Environment- Part 1) The introduction of new species of plants or animals tothe Australian environment causes great change to established and balanced ecosystems; as well, it causes degradation to the physical environment. H7: A student discusses geological, biological, physical and chemical evidence of the evolving Australian and world environments H10: A student assesses the effects of current pressures on the Australian environment Lesson 1 Definition and Identification of Introduced Species Students define introduced species as one that is not indigenous to a particular locality. Students identify the criteria that can be used to classify introduced species, Stage 4 Living World Classification LW1 There are differences within and between groups of organisms, classification helps organise this diversity.
