Content Knowledge
The content knowledge within the Medical Mission activity involved scientific and mathematical concepts mainly based within the Australian Curriculum (ACARA, 2013). For example, one science concept was “Natural and processed materials have a range of physical properties; these properties can influence their use” (ACSSU074) and mathematical concepts were around measuring and comparing lengths, masses, capacities and temperatures (ACMMG084; ACARA, 2013). These concepts were used in the materials engineering task for designing, making and testing a medical mission kit.
