Description This subject enables students to extend their knowledge of Mathematics education with a particular focus on differentiated and applied syllabuses in years 11-12. Students will explore their role in implementing the general capabilities of numeracy, both within the mathematics curriculum and in supporting the capable and confident use of mathematics across society and future work. A range of informed and evidence based approaches to cater for the diverse needs and challenges of students in the senior years of schooling will be addressed. Issues in education such as Mathematics self-efficacy, critical and creative thinking will be explored with further professional and applied research into Mathematics education for senior students.
