2024 / 2025 Senior Secondary Biology Field Trip
10. Study of sand flat ecosystem
A sand flat ecosystem is a lesser-known habitat. In addition to living on the sand, there are also many strange creatures lurking in the sand. Students systematically record changes in biotic and abiotic factors with the belt transect method to learn about how organisms are distributed and adapted.
Field Site: Ting Kok East, Tai Po
Instructional mode:
Students would carry out field study under teacher’s instructions. Download the field trip worksheet here (PDF): Sandflat
Investigatory mode:
Students would design and implement a research project on their own, including setting up research topic, targets and variables, methodology, and construct a report after all. Students are required to submit a research proposal via an online system before the field trip.
