1.1 Application
Explanation: Application refers to the practical use or implementation of theoretical knowledge
or skills in real-world situations. In education, it means using learned concepts in practical tasks
to understand their relevance and functionality. For instance, applying mathematical formulas to
solve real-life problems or using scientific principles in experiments to observe outcomes.

1.2 Learning the Scientific Approach
Explanation: Learning the scientific approach involves understanding and employing systematic
methods of inquiry that are empirical and evidence-based. It includes making observations,
forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, collecting data, and drawing conclusions. This
approach promotes critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills by encouraging
learners to question, investigate, and verify information through structured methodologies.

1.3 The Extent to Which Practical Work Develops Big Ideas
Explanation: Practical work, such as laboratory experiments and hands-on activities, helps
students grasp 'big ideas' or overarching concepts in science and other subjects. It facilitates a
deeper understanding by allowing students to observe phenomena directly, test theories, and see
the principles in action. This experiential learning connects abstract ideas to tangible
experiences, making it easier to understand and remember core concepts.
