The Higher Biology Tutor course comprises three units, each of which has a short introduction indicating links with Standard Grade and Intermediate 2 Biology. The course provides a more thorough understanding of the basic concepts which are covered in the Standard Grade and Intermediate 2 Biology courses and further develops the Standard Grade elements and Intermediate 2 outcomes of knowledge and understanding, problem solving and practical abilities.

Knowledge and understanding
All Biology Exam Candidates should develop the ability to recall and understand facts and principles detailed
in the course statements and supplementary notes in the following tables.

Problem solving
Problem solving skills should be developed so that candidates can generally:
• select relevant information from texts, tables, charts, keys, graphs and diagrams
• present information appropriately in a variety of forms, including written summaries, extended
writing, tables and graphs
• process information accurately, using calculations where appropriate
• plan, design and evaluate experimental procedures
• draw valid conclusions and give explanations supported by evidence
• make predictions and generalisations based on available evidence.

Practical abilities
Practical work is essential in providing the contexts for the development of scientific problem solving
skills. Practical work is necessary to underpin theoretical work and to develop skills. It fosters
familiarity with apparatus and equipment, and how it works, as a useful preparation for further study
or employment. As a result of engaging in practical work, candidates can generally:
• describe experimental procedures accurately
• record relevant measurements and observations in appropriate formats
• analyse and present experimental information in appropriate formats
• draw valid conclusions
• evaluate experimental procedures with supporting argument.
