STAQ-UQ Biology Data Fun Day - 2019 Offerings

Dr G’s Virtual Ecology Data Fun Days (Regional & Remote Teachers only) – Register here

These sessions are offered at no cost to biology teachers in regional and remote schools in Queensland. It is delivered virtually via Zoom (you will receive a video conference link to join the session). These sessions are repeated on the three dates that they are offered, so you are welcome to register for one or multiple offerings.

If you are a Head of Department or PD Coordinator at your school, we recommend that you complete the registration for all your attending staff. You would project the conference link to access the PD, and all attending staff work on the data set on their respective laptops.

This PD will review the three mandatory practicals of Unit 3 of the new Senior Biology syllabus, and reveal challenges in experimental design you will face in the field. We will propose statistical tests to best analyse likely data sets that you collect from these practicals, and how they might be best represented to satisfy the expectations of IA2.


Please note that EQ schools may experience that the Zoom conference link is blocked on your server. When you are provided the Zoom conference link, you should check to see if it works on your server. If not, you should send an expedited request to the Service Centre through OnePortal after endorsement from your Principal.
