Save your actual school result to count your credits.
This standard asks you to plan and carry out a maths investigation, then present and analyze your findings. You'll choose your own maths question, gather relevant data, show your results clearly, and explain what you've learned—including how well your investigation worked and what could be improved.
What to do, grades and common mistakes
- ·Identify clear aims or questions for your maths investigation and plan how you'll conduct it
- ·Collect relevant data using appropriate methods (observation, measurement, surveys, questionnaires)
- ·Display your data using suitable graphs, tables, charts, spreadsheets, or diagrams
- ·Analyze and interpret your findings, connecting them back to mathematical concepts or ideas
- ·Evaluate your investigation process by discussing what went well, what didn't work, and how you could improve it
You identify clear aims, plan your investigation, gather relevant data using an appropriate method, display it in a suitable format, analyze your findings, and reflect on your investigation process.
You work with greater depth—using multiple data sources or representations appropriately for your context, drawing clear conclusions that link to mathematical ideas, and providing thoughtful evaluation of both your process and findings.
