11. Who can be involved? The program would suit: ★ Year 10 students – individuals or groups of up to 25 students ★ Students seeking extension opportunities in science, who are genuinely interested in science and are self-motivated ★ Schools that would like to provide a Professional Development opportunity for their teachers in the emerging sciences, and in remote delivery of science

12. How is it delivered?  Modules run for 8 weeks  Two 1-hour synchronous lessons each week along with homework  Students participate in live lessons via web video-conferencing and collaboration tools  No fees for students or school for access to curriculum and resources  Students receive an NVSES report for each module completed

13. What is needed to participate?  High-speed internet access: NBN or high-speed broadband  Normal school connection should cope with small groups of students (up to 5-10). Larger student numbers may depend on whole school usage at the time (e.g. if other classes are accessing multimedia resources that also require high bandwidth). ✤ Students: access to individual or shared computers/laptops (with integrated webcams and headsets, or plug and play video & audio capabilities) ✤ Open access to online resources (school firewalls and content filters enabled for access) ✤ A liaison teacher and access to local school technical ICT support
