Challenging hypothetical scenarios designed to develop student problem solving skills and reading comprehension techniques.
The topics link into the maths, science, and health curriculums, with each case study requiring students to develop a logical explanation based on the information supplied. These open ended tasks are a great springboard for further research and discussion in a diverse range of subject areas.
The activities were first presented as part of a G.A.T.E WAYS Challenge program. G.A.T.E WAYS is an independent, non-funded organisation which aims to provide opportunities for children of 'like-minds' to participate in programs that will challenge them intellectually, and help develop their individual talents.
