Effects of biotic and abiotic stressors on plant growth Duration : 3 Lectures and 1 practical Students : S. Y. B. Sc.
Intended Learning Outcomes 01. 02. 03. I will be able to compare between biotic and abiotic stress I will be able to design my own protocol for studying plant stressors I will be able to apply the knowledge to grow plants and analyze their growth pattern
Assessment 01 02 Testing previous knowledge By taking student out for field visit Formative assessment Handouts of crossword based on biotic and abiotic stressors 03 Formative assessment Students will designed their own protocol and protocols will be peer assessed 04 Summative assessment Students must be able to understand and demonstrate how stress affects plant growth
Teaching learning activities Crosswords (15min) Students will receive handouts with a crossword puzzle. They will complete the puzzle independently and then use the provided answer key to self-assess their work. Effect of different plants treasures on growth of plants (1 practical) Students will work in groups to grow plants in the lab, observing the effects of different stressors on growth. They will document daily changes and create a video presentation to showcase their findings and analysis. Field visit (30min) Field visit to a garden, where students will work in pairs to observe the plants around them. Their task will be to identify any signs of stress in the plants. Following their observations, they will engage in a "Think-Pair-Share" discussion to share insights and findings with one another. Designer your own protocol (30min) Students will be divided into groups of four and tasked with developing their own protocols using various resources for reference. Once completed, the protocols will be exchanged within the groups for peer assessment, allowing students to evaluate each other’s work.
