Robotics

It seems like many elementary to high school robotics courses are focused on simply coding a Lego robot to move its mechanical arm up and down.
This course, in contrast, teaches students what a robot is and how it relates to other key technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Then the course examines 10 applications of robots and how they will change and impact various aspects of our lives and the economy.
Will robots simply steal our jobs, or will they be a tool that will create new opportunities and even free humans to use our creativity and curiosity to their full potential?
Students will grapple with this and many other questions as they explore this vital, future-focused subject.

Required Materials: None

Sociology

We are all members of society, therefore studying society gives us a more detailed view of our world. Sociology provides the tools needed to see the real world as it is, and the tools you might need to fix it! Students will learn about the history of the subject, what social structures, social institutions and social movements exist (family, religion, education, and political and economic institutions). Equally important is that students review topics of controversy related to social changes, inequality in society based on race, ethnicity and gender. Through project work that revolves around an overview of these topics, pupils are given the opportunity to explore in more detail human behaviour and human society.

Main topics

Sociology and the Sociological Perspective
Culture and Social Structures
Inequality in Society
Social Institutions and Social Movements
Modern Challenges

Choose this WA online subject if you want to know more detailed view of our world, an understanding of why we live the way we do.

Chemistry

The subject is intended for study in grades 10, 11, 12

To start the course, an algebra background is recommended because of the amount and type of math involved.
You might think of chemistry only in the context of lab tests, food additives or dangerous substances, but the field of
chemistry involves everything around us. Have you ever thought that hearing, seeing, tasting and touching all involve
intricate series of chemical reactions and interactions in your body? So, even if you don't work as a chemist, you're
doing chemistry, or something that involves chemistry, with pretty much everything you do. In everyday life, you do
chemistry when you cook, when you use cleaning detergents to wipe off your counter, when you take medicine or when
you dilute concentrated juice so that the taste isn't as intense.
In this course, students will discover what chemistry is, and how it is used and found all around us. In the scope of its
subject, chemistry occupies an intermediate position between physics and biology. It is sometimes called the central
science because it provides a foundation for understanding both basic and applied scientific disciplines at a fundamental
level. For example, chemistry explains aspects of plant chemistry (botany), the formation of igneous rocks (geology),
how atmospheric ozone is formed and how environmental pollutants are degraded (ecology), the properties of the soil
on the moon (cosmochemistry), how medications work (pharmacology), and how to collect DNA evidence at a crime
scene (forensics).

The importance of the scientific method for solving real-world problems will be explored during the course. The student
will gain knowledge in the following areas: types of matter, atomic structure, chemical periodicity, chemical formula
writing and naming, chemical equations. This course will also stress the important relationship between math and
science while studying measurement, metric system and stoichiometry. In the second semester, students will investigate
chemical bonding, thermochemistry, and acids and bases. Knowledge will be gained in the following areas: organic
chemistry, biochemistry, and nuclear chemistry.

Main Topics
Module 1 - What is Chemistry?
Module 2 – Atoms
Module 3 – Ions
Module 4 - Matter and Measurement
Module 5 - Ionic Bonds and Ionic Compounds
Module 6 - The Flow of Energy and Gas Properties
Module 7 - Acids and Bases
Module 8- Organic Chemistry

US HISTORY

One of the compulsory subjects (if you are taking a Dual Diploma program) is US History.

The subject is intended for study in grades 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
The American History is a description of the discovery, development and growth of the United States,
from the colonial period to the present day. As a more detailed study of the key factors in the rapid
development of the United States, students are encouraged to take into account geographical, economic, social and political trends and data. Throughout the study of American History, not only are the topics of American history discussed, but students also learn research methods and identify accurate sources of data from the past. Via reading, analysis, doing research and applying historical information, students come to an understanding of the forces that have shaped our history and the character of the American people.
Mastery of facts and historical dates is only the beginning of learning, as each student must understand how history affects him or her directly.
Main topics
✓ From Colonization to Independence
✓ Early Politics in the United States
✓ Westward Expansion & Manifest Destiny
✓ The Civil War & Reconstruction
✓ Industrialization & Immigration
✓ Progressives & WWI
✓ The Great Depression and the New Deal
✓ The Civil Rights Movement
✓ The Continuing Cold War and Issues at Home
✓ From 1989 to Present

It is mandatory course for dual diploma students
