The Biology skills and applications tasks assessment type is assessed by the school.

For a 10-credit subject, students undertake at least one skills and applications task. Students may undertake more than one skills and applications task within the maximum number of assessments allowed, but at least one should be under the direct supervision of the teacher. The supervised setting (e.g. classroom, laboratory, or field) should be appropriate to the task.

For a 20-credit subject, students undertake at least two skills and applications tasks. Students may undertake more than two skills and applications tasks within the maximum number of assessments allowed, but at least two should be under the direct supervision of the teacher. The supervised setting (e.g. classroom, laboratory, or field) should be appropriate to the task.

Student work should be their own. See Supervision and verification of student work.
