Built to support learners on the new next-generation BTEC First in Applied Science: Application of Science specification, this book supports the BTEC First Award in Applied Science – Application of Science QCF specification for first teaching from September 2013 (subject to Ofqual accreditation). New content for the 2012 specification covers the mandatory four units in depth, with case studies, examples and activities to help learners prepare. Combining BTEC team expertise across learning, teaching and assessment, the content has a renewed focus on assessment activities including the new external assessment, and activities in each unit provide support and guidance for classroom or independent use. The new BTEC Assessment Zone guides learners through internal (units 5-7) and external (unit 8) assessment, with examiner tips and support throughout. Note: from 2012, Pearson’s BTEC First qualifications underwent re-development, so schools and colleges may be teaching either the existing 2010 specification or the newer 2012-2013 one; different Student Books support each, so check with your teacher or tutor if you’re unsure.
