    PREFACE

    The aspiration of the nation to become an industrialisedsociety depends on science and technology. It is envisagedthat success in providing quality science education to

    Malaysians from an early age will serve to spearhead thenation into becoming a knowledge society and a competitiveplayer in the global arena. Towards this end, the Malaysianeducation system is giving greater emphasis to science andmathematics education.

    The Biology curriculum has been designed not only to provideopportunities for students to acquire science knowledge andskills, develop thinking skills and thinking strategies, and toapply this knowledge and skills in everyday life, but also toinculcate in them noble values and the spirit of patriotism. It is

    hoped that the educational process en route to achievingthese aims would produce well-balanced citizens capable ofcontributing to the harmony and prosperity of the nation andits people.

    The Biology curriculum aims at producing active learners. Tothis end, students are given ample opportunities to engage inscientific investigations through hands-on activities andexperimentations. The inquiry approach, incorporatingthinking skills, thinking strategies and thoughtful learning,should be emphasised throughout the teaching-learningprocess. The content and contexts suggested are chosenbased on their relevance and appeal to students so that theirinterest in the subject is enhanced.

    In a recent development, the Government has made adecision to introduce English as the medium of instruction inthe teaching and learning of science and mathematics. This

    measure will enable students to keep abreast of developments in science and technology in contemporarysociety by enhancing their capability and know-how to tap thediverse sources of information on science written in theEnglish language. At the same time, this move would alsoprovide opportunities for students to use the English languageand hence, increase their proficiency in the language. Thus, inimplementing the biology curriculum, attention is given todeveloping students ability to use English for study andcommunication, especially in the early years oflearning.

    The development of this curriculum and the preparation of thecorresponding Curriculum Specifications have been the workof many individuals over a period of time. To all those whohave contributed in one way or another to this effort, may I, onbehalf of the Ministry of Education, express my sinceregratitude and thanks for the time and labour expended.

    INTRODUCTION

    As articulated in the National Education Policy, education inMalaysia is an on-going effort towards developing the potential ofindividuals in a holistic and integrated manner to produce

    individuals who are intellectually, spiritually, emotionally andphysically balanced and harmonious. The primary and secondaryschool science curriculum is developed with the aim of producingsuch individuals.

    As a nation that is progressing towards a developed nation status,Malaysia needs to create a society that is scientifically oriented,progressive, knowledgeable, having a high capacity forchange,forward-looking, innovative and a contributor to scientific andtechnological developments in the future. In line with this, there is aneed to produce citizens who are creative, critical, inquisitive, open-minded and competent in science and technology.

    The Malaysian science curriculum comprises three core sciencesubjects and four elective science subjects. The core subjects areScience at primary school level, Science at lower secondary leveland Science at upper secondary level. Elective science subjectsare offered at the upper secondary level and consist of Biology,Chemistry, Physics, and Additional Science.

    The core science subjects for the primary and lower secondarylevels are designed to provide students with basic scienceknowledge, prepare students to be literate in science, and enablestudents to continue their science education at the upper secondary

    level. Core Science at the upper secondary level is designed toproduce students who are literate in science, innovative,and able to apply scientific knowledge in decision making andproblem solving in everyday life.

    The elective science subjects prepare students who are morescientifically inclined to pursue the study of science at post-secondary level. This group of students would take up careers in

    the field of science and technology and play a leading role in thisfield for national development.

    For every science subject, the curriculum for the year is articulatedin two documents: the syllabus and the curriculum specifications.The syllabus presents the aims, objectives and the outline of thecurriculum content for a period of 2 years for elective sciencesubjects and 5 years for core science subjects. The curriculumspecifications provides the details of the curriculum which includesthe aims and objectives of the curriculum, brief descriptions onthinking skills and thinking strategies, scientific skills, scientificattitudes and noble values, teaching and learning strategies, andcurriculum content. The curriculum content provides the themes,learning areas, learning objectives, suggested learning activities,the intended learning outcomes, notes and vocabulary.

    AIMS

    The curriculum also aims to develop a concerned, dynamic andprogressive society with a science and technology culture thatvalues nature and works towards the preservation and conservationof the environment.

    OBJECTIVES

    The biology curriculum for secondary school enables students to:

    10. Realise that scientific discoveries are the result of humanendeavour to the best of his or her intellectual and mentalcapabilities to understand natural phenomena for the bettermentof mankind.

    11. Be aware of the need to love and care for the environment andplay an active role in its preservation and conservation.

    SCIENTIFIC SKILLS

    Science emphasises inquiry and problem solving. In inquiry andproblem solving processes, scientific and thinking skills are utilised.Scientific skills are important in any scientific investigation such asconducting experiments and carrying out projects.

    Scientific skills encompass science process skills and manipulativeskills.

    Science Process Skills

    Science process skills enable students to formulate their questionsand find out the answers systematically.

    Descriptions of the science process skills are as follows:

    Observing Using the sense of hearing, touch, smell, taste

    and sight to collect information about an objector a phenomenon.

    Classifying Using observations to group objects or eventsaccording to similarities ordifferences.

    Measuringand Using

    Making quantitative observations usingnumbers and tools with standardised units.

    11/56

    Numbers Measuring makes observation more accurate.

    Inferring Using past experiences or previously collecteddata to draw conclusions and explain events.

    Predicting Stating the outcome of a future event based onprior knowledge gained through experiences orcollected data.

    Communicating Using words or graphic symbols such as tables,graphs, figures or models to describe an action,object orevent.

    Manipulative Skills

    Manipulative skills in scientific investigation are psychomotor skillsthat enable students to:

    use and handle science apparatus and laboratory substancescorrectly,

    handle specimens correctly and carefully,

    draw specimens, apparatus and laboratory substancesaccurately,

    clean science apparatus correctly, andUsing Space-TimeRelationship

    Describing changes in parameter with time.Examples of parameters are location, direction,shape, size, volume, weight and mass.

    store science apparatus and laboratory substances correctlyand safely.

    Interpreting Data Giving rational explanations about an object,event or pattern derived from collected data.

    THINKING SKILLS

    DefiningOperationally

    ControllingVariables

    Defining concepts by describing what must bedone and what should be observed.

    Identifying the fixed variables, manipulatedvariable, and responding variable in aninvestigation. The manipulated variable ischanged to observe its relationship with theresponding variable. At the sametime, the fixed variables are kept constant.

    Thinking is a mental process that requires an individual to integrateknowledge, skills and attitude in an effort to understand theenvironment.

    One of the objectives of the national education system is toenhance the thinking ability of students. This objective can beachieved through a curriculum that emphasises thoughtful llearning.Teaching and learning that emphasises thinking skills is afoundation for thoughtful learning.

    Hypothesising Making a general statement about therelationship between a manipulated variable

    and a responding variable in order to explain anevent or observation. This statement can betested to determine its validity.

    Experimenting Planning and conducting activities to test acertain hypothesis. These activities includecollecting, analysing and interpreting data andmaking conclusions.

    Thoughtful learning is achieved if students are actively involved in

    the teaching and learning process. Activities should be organised toprovide opportunities for students to apply thinking skills inconceptualisation, problem solving and decision-making.

    Thinking skills can be categorised into critical thinking skills andcreative thinking skills. A person who thinks critically alwaysevaluates an idea in a systematic manner before accepting it. Aperson who thinks creatively has a high level of imagination, is able

    to generate original and innovative ideas, and modify ideas andproducts.

    Thinking strategies are higher order thinking processes that iinvolvevarious steps. Each step involves various critical and creativethinking skills. The ability to formulate thinking strategies is theultimate aim of introducing thinking activities in the teaching and

    learning process.

    Appreciating the contribution of science and technology.

    Being thankful to God.

    Having critical and analytical thinking.

    Being flexible and open-minded.

    Being kind-hearted and caring.

    Being objective.

    Being systematic.

    Being cooperative.

    Being fair and just.

    Daring to try.

    Thinking rationally.

    Being confident and independent.

    The inculcation of scientific attitudes and noble values generallyoccurs through the following stages:

    Being aware of the importance and the need for scientificattitudes and noble values.

    Giving emphasis to these attitudes and values.

    Practising and internalising these scientific attitudes and noblevalues.

    When planning teaching and learning activities, teachers need togive due consideration to the above stages to ensure thecontinuous and effective inculcation of scientific attitudes andvalues. For example, during science practical work, the teachershould remind pupils and ensure that they carry out experiments ina careful, cooperative and honest manner.

    Proper planning is required for effective inculcation of scientific

    attitudes and noble values during science lessons. Before the firstlesson related to a learning objective, teachers should examine allrelated learning outcomes and suggested teaching-learning

    Contextual Learning

    Contextual learning is an approach that associates learning withdaily experiences of students. In this way, students are able toappreciate the relevance of science learning to their lives. Incontextual learning, students learn through investigations as in theinquiry-discovery approach.

    Mastery Learning

    Mastery learning is an approach that ensures all students are ableto acquire and master the intended learning objectives. Thisapproach is based on the principle that students are able to learn ifthey are given adequate opportunities. Students should be allowedto learn at their own pace, with the incorporation of remedial andenrichment activities as part of the teaching-learning process.

    Teaching and Learning Methods

    Teaching and learning approaches can be implemented throughvarious methods such as experiments, discussions, simulations,projects, and visits. In this curriculum, the teaching-learningmethods suggested are stated under the column SuggestedLearning Activities. However, teachers can modify the suggestedactivities when the need arises.

    The use of a variety of teaching and learning methods can enhancestudents interest in science. Science lessons that are notinteresting will not motivate students to learn and subsequently willaffect their performances. The choice ofteaching methods should be based on the curriculum content,students abilities, students repertoire of intelligences, and theavailability of resources and infrastructure. Besides playing the roleof knowledge presenters and experts, teachers need to act asfacilitators in the process of teaching and learning. Teachers needto be aware of the multiple intelligences that exist among students.Different teaching and learning activities should be planned to caterfor students with different learning styles and intelligences.

    The following are brief descriptions of some teaching and learningmethods.Experiment

    An experiment is a method commonly used in science lessons. Inexperiments, students test hypotheses through investigations to

    discover specific science concepts and principles. Conducting anexperiment involves thinking skills, scientific skills, and manipulativeskills.

    Usually, an experiment involves the following steps:

    Identifying a problem.

    Making a hypothesis.

    Planning the experiment

    - controlling variables.

    - determining the equipment and materials needed.

    - determining the procedure of the experiment and themethod of data collection and analysis.

    Conducting the experiment.

    Collecting data.

    Analysing data.

    Interpreting data.

    Making conclusions.

    Writing a report.

    In the implementation of this curriculum, besides guiding students todo an experiment, where appropriate, teachers should providestudents with the opportunities to design their own experiments.This involves students drawing up plans as to how to conductexperiments, how to measure and analyse data, and how to presentthe outcomes of their experiment.

    10

  • 8/8/2019 Yearly Plan Form 5 Biology

    19/56

    Discussion

    A discussion is an activity in which students exchange questionsand opinions based on valid reasons. Discussions can beconducted before, during or after an activity. Teachers should playthe role of a facilitator and lead a discussion by asking questionsthat stimulate thinking and getting students to express themselves.

    Simulation

    In simulation, an activity that resembles the actual situation iscarried out. Examples of simulation are role-play, games and theuse of models. In role-play, students play out a particular role basedon certain pre-determined conditions. Games require proceduresthat need to be followed. Students play games in order to learn aparticular principle or to understand the process ofdecision-making.Models are used to represent objects or actual situations so thatstudents can visualise the said objects or situations and thusunderstand the concepts and principles to be learned.

    Project

    A project is a learning activity that is generally undertaken by anindividual or a group of students to achieve a certain learningobjective. A project generally requires several lessons to complete.The outcome of the project either in the form of a report, an artefactor in other forms needs to be presented to the teacher and otherstudents. Project work promotes the development of problem-solving skills, time management skills, and independent learning.

    Visits and Use of External Resources

    The learning of science is not limited to activities carried out in theschool compound. Learning of science can be enhanced throughthe use of external resources such as zoos, museums, sciencecentres, research institutes, mangrove swamps, and factories.

    11

    Visits to these places make the learning of science moreinteresting, meaningful and effective. To optimise learningopportunities, visits need to be carefully planned. Students may beinvolved in the planning process and specific educational tasksshould be assigned during the visit. No educational visit is completewithout a post-visit discussion.

    Use of Technology

    Technology is a powerful tool that has great potential in enhancingthe learning of science. Through the use of technology such astelevision, radio, video, computer, and Internet, the teaching andlearning of science can be made more interesting and effective.

    Computer simulation and animation are effective tools for theteaching and learning of abstract or difficult science concepts.Computer simulation and animation can be presented throughcourseware or Web page. Application tools such, as wordprocessor, graphic presentation software and electronic

    spreadsheet are valuable tools for the analysis and presentation ofdata.

    The use of other tools such as data loggers and computerinterfacing in experiments and projects also enhance theeffectiveness of teaching and learning ofscience.

    CONTENT ORGANISATION

    The biology curriculum is organised around themes. Each themeconsists of various learning areas, each of which consists of anumber of learning objectives. A learning objective has one or morelearning outcomes.

    Learning outcomes are written based on the hierarchy of thecognitive and affective domains. Levels in the cognitive domain are:knowledge, understanding, application, analysis, synthesis and

  • 8/8/2019 Yearly Plan Form 5 Biology

    20/56

    evaluation. Levels in the affective domain are: to be aware of, to bein awe, to be appreciative, to be thankful, to love, to practise, and tointernalise. Where possible, learning outcomes relating to theaffective domain are explicitly stated. The inculcation of scientificattitudes and noble values should be integrated into every learningactivity. This ensures a more spontaneous and natural inculcationof attitudes and values. Learning areas in the psychomotor domain

    are implicit in the learning activities.

    Learning outcomes are written in the form of measurablebehavioural terms. In general, the learning outcomes for a particularlearning objective are organised in order of complexity. However, inthe process of teaching and learning, learning activities should beplanned in a holistic and integrated manner that enables theachievement of multiple learning outcomes according to needs andcontext. Teachers should avoid employing a teaching strategy thattries to achieve each learning outcome separately according to theorder stated in the curriculum specifications.

    The Suggested Learning Activities provide information on the scopeand dimension of learning outcomes. The learning activities statedunder the column Suggested Learning Activities are given with theintention of providing some guidance as to how learning outcomescan be achieved. A suggested activity may cover one or morelearning outcomes. At the same time, more than one activity maybe suggested for a particular learning outcome. Teachers maymodify the suggested activity to suit the ability and style of learningof their students. Teachers are encouraged to design otherinnovative and effective learning activities to enhance the learningofbiology.
