What the college says

Subject Aims: This course recognises the increasing role that mathematics and technology play in a diverse range of fields in a data-rich world. As such, it emphasises the meaning of mathematics in context by focusing on topics that are often used as applications or in mathematical modelling. To give this understanding a firm base, this course also includes topics that are traditionally part of a pre-university mathematics course such as calculus and statistics. The course makes extensive use of technology to allow students to explore and construct mathematical models. Mathematics Applications and Interpretation will develop mathematical thinking, often in the context of a practical problem and using technology to justify conjectures. Students who choose the course should enjoy seeing mathematics used in real-world contexts and to solve real-world problems. Course Content: There are five topics and within these topics there are sub-topics. The five topics are: • number and algebra • functions • geometry and trigonometry • probability and statistics • calculus
