$Pre-Calculus Math 30S$

$Consumer Math 30S$

Biology 30S is an essential component of the study of Life Science. It is an intensive introduction to the study of Human Biology particularly, with strong emphasis on the various anatomical and physiological systems of the human body. It is an important component in Life Science studies that lead to careers in medicine, pharmacy and others. In addition, Biology 30S is designed for those students who simply want to increase their knowledge of the Life Sciences. Forensic Topics in Science SCI30S Dept. of Ed. Code 0139-30S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Gr. 10 Science This course is student and inquiry centered with a primary focus on laboratory investigations and writing. Topics in Forensic Science 30S focuses on the application of science to the law and encompasses various scientific disciplines. This course will introduce various methodologies and applications used in the forensic context. Students will look at how instrumentation is used, what type of evidence it can process, how to read the results and the properties of the chemical and physical evidence. Topics discussed include, but are not limited to: types of evidence, DNA analysis, forensic anthropology, fingerprinting, hair analysis and document analysis. This course is open to students in grades 10-12 who meet the prerequisite. Chemistry CHM30S Dept. of Ed. Code 0122-30S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: SCI20F, MAP20S This course is designed to introduce and develop some of the basic concepts in chemistry, and to promote an understanding of the relationship between chemistry, technology and their impact upon the individual and society. Content includes a review of atomic theory, the Periodic Table and the elements, as well as chemical compounds and bonding. Extensive treatment is dedicated to the mole concept and chemical reactions, the physical nature of gases, solutions, and an introduction to organic chemistry. This course is a prerequisite for continued study in Chemistry 40S. Physics PHY30S Dept. of Ed. Code 0123-30S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: SCI20F, MAP20S This course seeks to foster a sense of enthusiasm and competence for physics. Students will study a range of topics starting with background skills, then study of motion in 1 dimension, forces in 1 and 2 dimensions, field theory, and concluding with waves and sound. Physics is a true foundation science, and as a result, most students find value in the concepts learned, as they relate directly to everyday experiences, and to some of the technical aspects of our courses they have studied. This course is a prerequisite for continued study in Physics 40S. Biology BIO40S Dept. of Ed. Code 0124-40S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: BIO30S Human existence is closely intertwined with the existence of other organisms living on Earth. It is through the study of biology that humans can expect to understand how to preserve the health of our planet and all organisms that call it home. The following topics will be covered: DNA and its role in cell function and genetics, Evolutionary Theory, and the Organization, Classification and Conservation of Biodiversity (the variety of living species in an area). The course demands daily study/review and the memorization of many new terms. Chemistry CHM40S Dept. of Ed. Code 0122-40S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: CHM30S, MAM30S or MPC30S Chemistry 40S is designed to provide a firm grounding in the concepts and processes of chemistry, an understanding of the factors which influence the application of chemical principles. The course is an often requested prerequisite for many continued studies at the post-secondary level. As such, it offers excellent preparation for continued study, and will prepare the successful candidate for the rigors of a top-level science course. Topics covered are: electronic structure, bonding, reaction rates, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, solubility, and oxidation-reduction reactions. Physics PHY40S Dept. of Ed. Code 0123-40S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: PHY30S & MPC30S or MAM30S Physics 40S continues the study started in the 30S course, and provides students with a thorough preparation for study in a variety of disciplines at the postsecondary level. A variety of new topics include motion and forces in twodimensions, conservation laws including conservation of energy and momentum (two of the most commonly employed ideas in science), electric forces and fields, electric circuits, magnetism and electromagnetic induction. The topics serve as the fundaments for a wide - 68 -
variety of related areas of study - chemistry, electrical and electronics, optics, medicine and physiotherapy, engineering and many others. Environmental Topics SCI40S In Science Dept. of Ed. Code 0140-40S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: SCI20F This course provides students with a foundation of understanding, knowledge and skills to deal effectively with environmental problems such as global warming, acid rain, endangered species and invasive plants and animals. The course will incorporate academic and applied studies that include lab and fieldwork. Students will gain a broad awareness of environmental science and technological career opportunities. An emphasis is placed on students using critical thinking and analytical skills to make a positive impact on the environment. University Biology (1115/1116) BIO42U Dept. of Ed. Code 4546-42U Credit: 1 Prerequisite: CHM40S (min. 70%); BIO30S (min. 70%) BIO40S (strongly recommended) Biology 42U is a dual track course. Students earn both a high school credit and 6 credit hours from the University of Winnipeg. The course follows the university course outlines of the two 3 credit hour course BIO 1115: Cells and Cellular Processes and BIO 1116: Evolution, Ecology and Biodiversity. The course credit can be used at the University of Winnipeg or transferred to other universities. SOCIAL SCIENCE Geographic Issues of the GEO20F 21 st Century Dept. of Ed. Code 1180-20F Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Gr. 9 Social Studies In Geographic Issues of the 21 st Century, students focus on a variety of issues and challenges of the contemporary world. They explore the nature of geography and develop skills related to geographical thinking. Students use the methods and tools of geography to examine issues and problems and to propose solutions. They study concepts related to ownership and development of natural resources, production and distribution of food, development of industry and trade, and increasing urbanization. Students consider these issues in the context of Canada, North America and the World. Geography: Physical GEO30S Dept. of Ed. Code 1124-30S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Sincere Interest This course provides a firm conceptual basis in Physical Geography. It approaches the subject matter in a systematic topical manner. It attempts to demonstrate the many and varied inter-relationships of phenomena in the physical environment and concludes with a study of how man has adjusted to his natural surroundings. Geography: Physical GEO30G Dept. of Ed. Code 1124-30G Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Sincere Interest The student will gain an understanding of his physical surroundings and how they affect his activities in this course. Physical Geography, the first section of two, deals with the study of maps, earth as a planet, forms of the earth and climate. The second section, Human Geography, deals with the study of man’s relationship to climate, economic activities and population. History of Canada HCA30F Dept. of Ed. Code 0105-30F Credit: 1 Prerequisite: GEO20F strongly encouraged Students in this compulsory course will learn about how this country was formed and how it works. Topics for discussion include the First Nations Peoples of Canada, New France, our time as a British North American colony (including the War of 1812), government, Industrialization (including World War I), and Canada in the 20th century (The Great Depression, Women's Rights, World War II, Quebec separatism, Western alienation). It is strongly recommended that students complete GEO20F prior to taking HCA30F because of the course's significant writing and thinking/discussion expectations. Global Issues: Citizenship HGI40S and Sustainability Dept. of Ed. Code 1128-40S Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Sincere Interest The purpose of this course is to examine and analyze some of the major issues confronting our world. It is a conceptual course which scans a wide spectrum of historical and present day global problems such as: terrorism/conflict, disease, population, the environment etc. As well students will have the opportunity pursue topics that relate to their own personal interests. Discussion and problem solving will play a significant role in this course. Upon completion of this course students will have developed a greater understanding of their world. - 69 -
