Content

  • Unit M5: Marine ecology (continued)

    This unit is part of a two-year IGCSE Marine Science course. While the unit can be taken on its own, it is recommended that students have completed Unit M1, M2, M3, M4, and M5 Part 1 beforehand to build a solid foundation for the material covered.

    Join our hands-on online class where you'll explore practical methods used to investigate marine ecosystems. You'll learn essential techniques for studying the population size and species richness of a shore, counting organisms, measuring percentage cover, and investigating how species distribution changes along a transect. We'll also dive into fieldwork skills like measuring the profile of a shore, analysing the particle profile of sand or sediment, and determining moisture content. This class is perfect for learners eager to apply scientific methods to real-world environmental studies!

  • Course Objectives:

We need tomorrow’s: 👩‍🔬Doctors 👨‍🔬Research Scientists 👩‍🔬Engineers 👨‍🔬Inventors 👩‍🔬Nano technology experts If we can spark your child’s imagination to ask, explore, question and investigate; this becomes of a life-long skill which could lead down the path of an amazing science career. Who knows we might even have a future Nobel Prize winner?!

“The group is wonderful, the classes are great, the teachers are awesome and my kids feel they belong to a community. They've made real friends with whom they spend hours chatting and playing. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't find this group.…. you have made a gigantic difference in many people's lives and have contributed greatly to ensuring many kids enjoy studying and grow up happy and mentally healthy and that is pretty amazing.”

“You're pure genius. It’s given us a lifeline! There are no words I can say to describe just how incredible it is to have amazing teachers at our fingertips to teach my daughter (and all the other kids here). Because of YOU and all the TEACHERS here, I am able to take my daughter out of an environment that wasn’t suitable for her and still give her a good education, that's so affordable, at home where she feels safe and comfortable. ”

“The way you’ve structured The £2 Tuition Hub clearly comes from a deep and personal understanding of what anxious/ND children and young people need in order to be able to engage with and enjoy their learning. I’d honestly be lost without your work, so big thanks to you and the rest of your team. ”

“....The Enterprising minds course has helped her to be able to do a business plan and her accounts. I/ we just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all in the hub. When we started HE 2 years ago we were thrown in it and wasn't sure that we would manage it. But the help all the Teachers have provided via the hub has really made this unfamiliar journey not only bearable, but enjoyable. ”
