Chicken farming in the living world: Stage 3

TLF ID M025774

Chickens are fascinating animals and provide students with an interesting subject matter to discuss the many aspects of our living world. This interactive course for students explores the question 'Why is it important for food and/or fibre to be produced sustainably?' and comprises a series of modules and supporting videos. Students will work in small groups to plan, design and create a digital model of a sustainable farm which has been embedded into a Google Site (only available to NSW DoE schools). They will present their model to an audience.The modules are supported by a teacher guide.
