12MTS

Level 2 Mathematics with Statistics

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Miss N. Hampton.

Do you want to find the best ways to collect information? Do you want to interpret data? Do you like data science and graphs? Then this is the course for you!

In 12MTS you will experience  and learn about a variety of statistical concepts such as:

- develop statistical methods that can be applied to samples to make inferences about populations.

- understand design principles in order to conduct effective surveys. 

- engage with different types of networks and develop methods to solve problems relating to them.

- understand experimental designs and apply different experimental methods to situations. 

- apply ideas about chance to simulations. 

- explore the interesting  world of the Normal Distribution and of all things probability including risk.

Recommended Prior Learning

This course requires students to have demonstrated strong probability skills in Year 11.

Ideally students will have Achieved with Merit in the Chance and Data external in level 1.
