General
This course focuses on using mathematics effectively, efficiently and critically to make informed decisions. It provides students with the mathematical knowledge, skills and understanding to solve problems in real contexts for a range of workplace, personal, further learning and community settings. This course provides the opportunity for students to prepare for post-school options of employment and further training.
This unit provides students with the mathematical skills and understandings to solve problems relating to calculations, applications of measurement, the use of formulas to find an unknown quantity and the interpretation of graphs. Throughout this unit, students use the mathematical thinking process.
This unit provides students with the mathematical skills and understanding to solve problems related to representing and comparing data, percentages, rates and ratios and time and motion. Students further develop the use of the mathematical thinking process and apply the statistical investigation process. The investigation process should be explicitly taught in conjunction with the statistical content within this unit.
