  • relevant attitudes, such as a concern for accuracy and precision, objectivity, integrity, enquiry, initiative and inventiveness

  • an interest in, and care for, the environment

  • a better understanding of the influence and limitations placed on scientific study by society, economy, technology, ethics, the community and the environment

  • an understanding of the scientific skills essential for both further study and everyday life.
