VCE VM Numeracy Units 1 and 2

TERTIARY & CAREER PATHWAYS:

For students seeking a pathway to indirect university entry, Technical and Further Education (TAFE), apprenticeships / traineeships or employment. 

UNIT 1

In Unit 1 students will develop their numeracy practices to make sense of their personal, public and vocational lives. They will develop mathematical skills with consideration of their local, community, national and global environments and contexts, and an awareness and use of appropriate technologies.

These units provide students with the fundamental mathematical knowledge, skills, understandings and dispositions to solve problems in real contexts for a range of workplace, personal, further learning and community settings relevant to contemporary society.

Key Skills:

There are four areas of study for Unit 1:

  • Area of Study 1: Number
  • Area of Study 2: Shape
  • Area of Study 3: Quantity and measures
  • Area of Study 4: Relationships.

The areas of study cover a range of different mathematical knowledge and skills that are expected to be used and applied across the three outcomes.

UNIT 2

In Unit 2 students will develop and extend their numeracy practices to make sense of their personal, public and vocational lives. They will develop mathematical skills with consideration of their local, community, national and global environments and contexts, and identification and appropriate selection and use of relevant technologies.

These units provide students with the fundamental mathematical knowledge, skills, understandings and dispositions to solve problems in real contexts for a range of workplace, personal, further learning and community settings relevant to contemporary society.

Key Skills:

There are four areas of study for Unit 2:

  • Area of Study 5: Dimension and direction
  • Area of Study 6: Data
  • Area of Study 7: Uncertainty
  • Area of Study 8: Systematics

The areas of study cover a range of different mathematical knowledge and skills that are expected to be used and applied across the three outcomes.
