It specifies assessment methods including internal tests, essays, laboratory reports and online quizzes, plus external written examinations for specified criteria. The handbook covers completion of work and late-submission penalties, extension requests, academic integrity and Harvard-style referencing, and provides course requirements such as a scientific calculator. It includes a detailed weekly Program of Learning for 2025 with criterion unit tests, term breaks, public holidays, and external exam dates in November.",{"@graph":69,"@context":123},[70,84,106],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":40,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/physical-sciences-3-student-handbook-assessment-and-program-of-learning/266056/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/physical-sciences-3-student-handbook-assessment-and-program-of-learning/266056.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"WPS_1786070896","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-09-14",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":105},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",11,{"@type":107,"mainEntity":108},"FAQPage",[109,115,119],{"name":110,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":112},"How are students assessed in Physical Sciences 3?","Question",{"text":113,"@type":114},"Students complete internal assessments such as tests, essays, laboratory reports and online quizzes, and an external written examination assessing criteria 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

You will also:  \n• undertake, interpret and analyse experiments and investigations (Criterion 2)  \n• analyse the application and impact of physical science in society (Criterion 3)  \nHow you’ll be assessed:  \nCommon types of internal assessments are:  \n• Tests  \n• Essays  \n• Laboratory reports  \n• Online quizzes  \nThe external assessment for this subject is a written examination assessing criteria: 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.  \nThe dates for external exams in November are non-negotiable.  \nCOMPLETION OF WORK  \nAssessment due dates are provided in the Program of Learning and on Canvas. Work must be submitted by the due date unless an approved extension has been granted. Unapproved late submissions will incur penalties as outlined in the Completion of Work Policy. Students needing extensions should contact their subject teacher before the due date with valid reasons, such as illness or unforeseen circumstances.  \nFor more details refer to the Launceston College: Completion of Work Policy.  \nACADEMIC INTEGRITY  \nAll senior secondary students in Tasmania are expected to uphold academic integrity, meaning they complete their work honestly and fairly. This includes properly referencing any ideas, images, or information borrowed from others, allowing teachers to distinguish between original and sourced content.  \nAssignments will be submitted through Canvas, email, hard copy as directed in the task sheet. For more details, refer to the Launceston College: Academic Integrity Policy.  \nREFERENCING  \nThe Harvard referencing system is recommended for Physical Sciences 3. The standards for criterion 1 state that a student must:  \n• create appropriate reference lists/bibliographies and use in-text referencing.  \n• clearly identifies the information, images, ideas and words of others used in the student’s work.  \nCOURSE DOCUMENT  \nThe TASC website provides considerable information about the course.
