All organisms, including humans, depend on, interact with and affect the environments in which they live and other organisms that live there.

'Organisms and their environments' is one of 15 big ideas of science in the Best Evidence Science Teaching collection. Understanding of the big idea is built up by a series of key concepts at age 11-16, which have been organised into teaching topics.

The research-informed resources for each key concept make up a progression toolkit that provides:

  • appropriately-sequenced steps for learning progression

  • diagnostic questions to reveal preconceptions and common misunderstandings

  • response activities to challenge misunderstandings and encourage conceptual development.
