Level 2 General Mathematics
Course Description
Teacher in Charge:
Are you able to do maths but find algebra a little confusing? Do understand graphs but don't like writing those big long statistics reports? Do you need mathematics for your future? Then this is the course for you!
In 12MTG you will experience and learn a variety of mathematical and statistical concepts such as:
- extended thinking, especially in relation to graphs and patterns.
- develop further understanding of more complicated trigonometric terms in a real-life context.
- engage with different types of networks and develop methods to solve problems relating to them.
- develop statistical methods that can be applied to samples to make inferences about populations.
- apply ideas about chance to simulations.
- explore the interesting world of the Normal Distribution and of all things probability including risk.
Recommended Prior Learning
Open entry. However it is recommended that you have taken either 11MTG or 11MTA in year 11.
