1 COURSE OUTLINE - ADVETI Course Title Course Code Grade 10 Basic IGCSE Physics PHYSI Duration (periods) 144 Version Number V3 Date: December 2012 Revision Date Industry Sector Linked Standards Course Purpose Context of delivery and assessment 1 yr. Short review date: May/ yrs. In depth review date: May/2015 Engineering, Aviation and Business IGCSE This course provides the learner with the unpinning Physics and applied science skills and knowledge needed for Engineering, Aviation and Business courses. This course is relevant to general physics for Engineering, Business and Aviation. Not all assessment criteria need to be met in one assessment task or activity. Pre-Requisite/Co- Requisite Assessment Refer to ADVETI assessment policy Teacher/Learner Resources Physical resources The teacher and student should have access to current industry relevant publications including but not restricted to: Physics Notes Internet access Software packages Board works etc I-Pads It is essential that assessment is conducted in an environment which reflects industry practices with access to suitable resources and equipment specifically: A standard classroom environment; Library facilities; I-Pads Smart board/interactive whiteboard A data projector A laptop & calculators Course outline_grade 10_STSCIS801_v3 Page 1 of 9

2 Customisation required (Please specify) General Comments Access to Laboratory and workshops Hands-on materials: Calculators, rules, graph papers, simple card material for modelling, tins, rulers, graph paper, card, scissors, glue Measuring equipment: Scales, measuring tapes, thermometers, compasses and protractors Available in English only Alongside with the course students are to practice IGCSE past papers. The following skills must be assessed as part of this course: Essential Skills Students ability to use the suitable measuring instrument and in the proper way to carry measurements for mass, volume, length, period of time, temperature and density. The ability to explain the difference between mass and weight. Define and use the formulae of pressure and be able to explain the liquid pressure standards and the factors that affect pressure. Build abilities to observe motion and use the kinematic tools and graphs to determine motion type and calculate quantities like distance, speed, acceleration and time. Be able to differentiate between vectors and scalars. Define the main cause of motion and study forces regarding their action, effects, and units. Be able to explain the conditions of equilibrium of bodies and explain some natural movements taking into consideration the centre of mass of the object. Dealing with risks and danger through investigations on seat belt and breaking cars, thinking distance that effect the driver making a car accident, braking forces and drag forces for the aerodynamic shape of cars and parachutists. Define energy work and power and investigate how energy resources are valuable and what make us in challenge with making these resources green and renuable. Here students are facing through detailed knowledge of energy transformation and sources the challenge that are facing to make use of sources of energy other than the chemical and nuclear. Then, the course will shift to the study of thermal effects and provide students with skills essential to their daily lives from explaining the simple phenomena of nature regarding water state change to the engineering of bridges and taking into consideration the thermal effects on building them. Then students are exposed to learn skills on fluid motion which help them understand many motions of fluids and introduce to them the importance of fluid movement which is important to general lives and especially to those who will study in the aviation section. Students will learn the ways of building and using a thermometer to measure temperature in different situations. Course outline_grade 10_STSCIS801_v3 Page 2 of 9
