The information below is a brief summary of areas of study and learning program only, for more detailed information please access the VCAA VCE Mathematical Methods Study Design using the link below.
Areas of study
How can we apply techniques, routines and processes involving rational and real arithmetic, sets, lists and tables, diagrams and geometric constructions, algorithms, algebraic manipulation, equations, graphs and differentiation, with and without the use of technology?
Learning program & assessment:
The learning program is entirely theory based with investigations into real life scenarios.
Outcome 1 and 2 requires students to apply their theoretical knowledge while outcome 3 requires students to demonstrate their knowledge and use of the TI-Nspire CAS calculator functions across all Areas of Study.
Students are assessed through the completion of tests, as well as application-, modelling- and problem solving tasks.
