Overview
The objective of our Online A-Level Physics E-Learning Course to develop student's understanding of how science contributes to the success of society. The student will develop understanding about different areas of physics and how they relate to each other. The student will also acquire skills and knowledge of how science works, which will prepare the student for advanced study.
This online course will enable students to: - Develop their enthusiasm for the subject, including developing an interest in further study and careers in the subject
- Understand how society makes decisions about scientific issues and how the sciences contribute to the success of the economy and society
- Develop a deeper appreciation of the skills, knowledge and understanding of How Science Works
- Develop essential knowledge and understanding of different areas of the subject and how they relate to each other.
