The primary presentation focused on the science department's curriculum update, emphasizing a transition toward phenomena-based teaching and performance-based assessments to enhance student engagement and bridge achievement gaps. The science faculty demonstrated how these instructional methods allow students to apply scientific concepts to real-world scenarios, such as analyzing cardiovascular issues.
