| Prerequisites: |
|---|
| Students who have historically been successful on this course have come to us with a minimum of 14 course credits at Level 1 with merit or higher for the 'Chance and Data' paper. These students have a 'can do' attitude which is shown by them attempting all external examinations that they are entered for at Level 1. Students who do not meet these criteria may be considered under discussion with the Head of Faculty. |
| Learning Strategies: |
|---|
| Students will learn through utilisation of a range of different learning strategies that include: investigations and discovery learning, group work, directed teaching, practice tasks, regular formative and summative assessment. |
| Main Areas of Study: |
|---|
| This course will lead into Level 3 Mathematics and Level 3 Statistics and so will cover a range of topics from trigonometry to statistical inference. The external examination is in 'Probability' - having a graphics calculator will be a significant advantage for students in this examination. |
