You have chosen to study one of the most popular subjects of VCE. Don’t take our word for it, speak to people around, mention that you are studying year 12 Biology and most people will tell you it was one of their most favourite subjects. While the study design focuses on developing student understanding of biochemistry, immunology and evolution by natural selection we strongly recommend adopting some independent behaviours that will enable you to succeed in Biology.  \nTake charge of your learning, see yourself as a work in progress. Consider engaging in the following behaviours:  \n􀂐 Read your Study Design before the year starts, throughout the year to gauge your learning and prior to assessments. Be aware of the key terms even before you learn them and the nature of the assessment tasks that you are expected to undertake.  \n􀂐 Establish a working relationship with your teacher. Do not hesitate to seek your teacher’s assistance in developing an independent study schedule, key revision strategies or to address any areas of concern. Reach out in person or via Teams. Your success is dependent on your ability to identify and address any problems as they arise.  \n􀂐 Behave as a member of a collective. Your class offers you the opportunity to explore your understanding through collaborating with others. You might not know the answer but someone else will. Collaboration leads to improved outcomes for everyone involved! As Issac Newton famously said, “If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants”.  \n􀂐 Endeavour to manage your time to enable learning and reviewing throughout the year. Establish a set time every week for completing textbook work, Edrolo lessons and reviewing of work by completing single page summaries, concept maps, annotations and past exam questions. Review your practices. If your study plan isn’t working, adjust your plan and try again.  \n􀂐 Balance your time with a healthy mix of study, exercise, leisure and socialising. Your wellbeing is more important than any school result. Be kind to yourself by taking care of your responsibilities and if, or when, you feel overwhelmed by your workload, seek assistance from someone you trust. You do not have to do this alone, as a matter of fact you will do better with others.  \n“Don’t waste this opportunity. Do everything you can to achieve your best. Use your teacher as a resource and always challenge your level of understanding”.  \nSincerely your Biology Teachers  \nOutline of Study Design for Units 3 & 4  \nUnit 3: How do cells maintain life?  \nAREA OF STUDY 1: What is the role of nucleic acids and proteins in maintaining life?  \nIn this area of study students explore the expression of the information encoded in a sequence of DNA to form a protein and outline the nature of the genetic code and the proteome. They apply their knowledge to the structure and function of the DNA molecule to examine how molecular tools and techniques can be used to manipulate the molecule for a particular purpose. Students compare gene technologies used to address human and agricultural issues and consider the ethical implications of their use.  \nAREA OF STUDY 2: How are biochemical pathways regulated?  \nIn this area of study students focus on the structure and regulation of biochemical pathways. They examine how biochemical pathways, specifically photosynthesis and cellular respiration, involve many steps that are controlled by enzymes and assisted by coenzymes. Students investigate factors that affect the rate of cellular reactions and explore applications of biotechnology that focus on the regulation of biochemical pathways.  \nUnit 4: How does life change and respond to challenges?  \nAREA OF STUDY 1: How do organisms respond to pathogens?  \nIn this area of study students focus on the immune response of organisms to specific pathogens.
