Are you frustrated by the complex and time consuming assessment methods in the new QSA syllabi in Maths, Chemistry and Physics?
Do you think that there is now an over-emphasis on writing tasks in Physics and Chemistry?
Will Queensland have the same assessment schemes under the forthcoming National Curriculum?
Do you want to do something to improve the situation?
In Western Australia, similar syllabi to those now being implemented in Queensland were discarded after concerted organized action by teachers, parents and universities. This is an opportunity to be heard.

The Queensland Standards based syllabuses are not the same as the Western Australin Outcomes based syllabuses.
