  1. Mathematics What is new? • Approach • Content • Use of technology

  2. Approach • Based on a constructivist view of teaching and learning • Mathematics as a human activity • Activity based learning • Mathematical modeling and problem solving

  3. GET LO 1 N’s & No/Rel. LO2 Pat’s, Fxns & Algebra LO3 Sh & Space LO 4 Data & Prob. LO 5 Measurem FET LO 1 N’s & N/Rel LO2 Fxns & Alg LO3 Sh/Sp & Mea LO4 Data & Prob. Content: Link between GET and FET

  4. Content • Financial mathematics • Structural approach to functions • Mensuration • Transformation geometry • Other types of geometries • data handling and probability

  5. Technologies • The use of various technologies depending on availability

  6. Definition of ML • Role of mathematics in the modern world • life related applications • numerical and spatial thinking in order to : - analyse everyday situations - solve problems

  7. Purpose • Everyday life • Workplace • Citizenship

  8. Purpose • Everyday life: Self managing • Workplace • Citizenship

  9. Purpose • Everyday life: Self managing • Workplace: Contributing • Citizenship

  10. Purpose • Everyday life: Self managing • Workplace: Contributing • Citizenship: Participating

  11. Educational and Career links • Ability to handle with confidence the mathematics that occurs in everyday life • Learnerships • Tertiary study: ability to handle math related requirements in social or life sciences

  12. Learning Outcomes • LO 1: Number and operations in context • LO 2: Functional relationships • LO 3: Space, shape and measurement • LO 4: Data handling

  13. LO 1: Number and operations in context The learner is able to use knowledge of numbers and their relationships to investigate a range of different contexts which include financial aspects of personal, business and national issues

  14. LO 2: Functional relationships The learner is able to recognise, describe and represent various functional relationships to solve problems in real and simulated contexts

  15. LO 3: Space, Shape and Measurement The learner is able to measure using appropriate instruments , to estimate and calculate physical quantities and to interpret, describe and represent properties of and relationships between 2D shapes and 3D objects in a variety of orientations and positions.

  16. LO 4: Data Handling The learner is able to collect, summarise, display and analyse data and to apply knowledge of statistical and probability to communicate, justify and critically interrogate findings and draw conclusions

  17. End of presentation Thank You

  18. Every day life • Self managing person: an insightful use of mathematics in the management of the needs of everyday living

  19. Workplace • Contributing worker an under-standing of mathematics that provides insight into occupational experiences

  20. Citizenship • Participating citizen the ability to voice a critical sensitivity of the role of mathematicsin a democratic society
