About Course

The objectives, aims, and goals of the scientific course are diverse, and together they help to determine the course’s direction and purpose. First and foremost, its main goal is to promote a profound and thorough grasp of the fundamental laws controlling the natural world. This includes disseminating information on numerous branches of science like physics, chemistry, biology, and earth sciences. Second, the course seeks to develop students’ analytical and critical thinking abilities so they can analyze complicated issues and find scientific solutions. Additionally, it aims to foster a sense of wonder and interest about the universe in kids, motivating them to investigate the uncharted. In addition, the course seeks to prepare students for a range of professions, including those in engineering, environmental sciences, healthcare, and research and academia. Ultimately, its overarching goal is to equip individuals with the knowledge, skills, and passion to contribute positively to society through scientific inquiry and innovation.

In summary, In order to give students a strong foundation in the field of scientific knowledge and inquiry, the science course was created with a number of important objectives and purposes in mind. First and foremost, the course aims to give students a thorough understanding of fundamental scientific concepts in fields including physics, chemistry, biology, and earth sciences. This covers both theoretical information as well as practical information with amazing activities and games related to science. Second, the course intends to develop students’ analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. The ability to address real-world problems with a scientific perspective is something that students gain through practical experiments, data analysis, and research projects.

Additionally, the course aims to foster in its pupils a spirit of curiosity and a love of learning. It inspires them to ponder issues, delve into the uncharted, and appreciate the wonders of nature. The preparation of pupils for a variety of future occupations is another significant objective of the scientific course. The knowledge and abilities they acquire in this course will be extremely beneficial, regardless of whether they are interested in scientific research, medicine, engineering, or environmental preservation.

The main objective is to enable students to develop into knowledgeable, accountable citizens who can make informed decisions about matters of science and constructively impact society through scientific understanding and creativity.

Course Content

Chapter 01 – Human Organ Systems
An organ system is defined as a group of organs that work together to perform bodily functions. For example, the organs in the gastrointestinal (GI) system each play a unique, important role in food digestion.

Chapter 02 – Heredity Organisms
Heredity, also called inheritance or biological inheritance, is the passing on of traits from parents to their offspring; either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction, the offspring cells or organisms acquire the genetic information of their parents.

Chapter 03 – Biotechnology
Biotechnology harnesses cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies and products that help improve our lives and the health of our planet.

Chapter 04 – Pollutants and Their Effects on Environment
Air pollution can directly contaminate the surface of bodies of water and soil. This can kill crops or reduce their yield. It can kill young trees and other plants. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide particles in the air can create acid rain when they mix with water and oxygen in the atmosphere.

Chapter 05 – Chemical Reactions
A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, the reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, the products.

Chapter 06 – Acids, Alkalis, and Salts
This chapter elaborates on the behaviour of acids, alkalis, and salts. Acids are generally colourless liquids or white solids.

Chapter 07 – Force and Pressure
Force is the push and pulls action and it results in the change of motion and direction. On the other hand, pressure is the physical force applied to the unit area of the surface.

Chapter 08 – Measurement of Physical Quantities
Measurements of physical quantities are expressed in terms of units, which are standardized values. For example, the length of a race, which is a physical quantity, can be expressed in units of meters (for sprinters) or kilometres (for distance runners).

Chapter 09 – Sources and Effects of Heat Energy
If the constituent particle of an object becomes excited by gaining energy, the particle moves or vibrates rapidly and the object is said to be hot. If the particles have less energy, they will not vibrate, and the object is said to be cold. Heat is the transfer of energy between these objects due to a temperature difference.

Chapter – 10 Lenses
Piece of transparent material (such as glass) that has two opposite regular surfaces either both curved or one curved and the other plane and that is used either singly or combined in an optical instrument for forming an image by focusing rays of light.

Chapter 11 – Electricity in Action
A fundamental form of energy observable in positive and negative forms that occur naturally (as in lightning) or are produced (as in a generator) and that is expressed in terms of the movement and interaction of electrons, electric current or power.

Chapter 12 – Exploring Space
Space exploration is the investigation, using crewed and uncrewed spacecraft, of the reaches of the universe beyond Earth's atmosphere and the use of the information so gained to increase knowledge of the cosmos and benefit humanity.
