K–10Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2022)
The new Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2022) is to be implemented from 2024 and replaces the Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2012).
School sectors are responsible for implementing syllabuses and are best placed to provide schools with specific guidance and information on implementation given their understanding of their individual contexts.
Content
Stage 4
- MAO-WM-01
develops understanding and fluency in mathematics through exploring and connecting mathematical concepts, choosing and applying mathematical techniques to solve problems, and communicating their thinking and reasoning coherently and clearly
- MA4-DAT-C-02
analyses simple datasets using measures of centre, range and shape of the data
Calculate the mean of a set of data using digital tools
Calculate and describe the Loading , Loading , Loading and Loading
Classify the mean, median and/or mode as Loading to represent the Loading or typical value of a dataset
Describe and interpret data displays using mean, median and range
Identify and describe datasets as having no modes (uniform), one mode (unimodal), 2 modes (bimodal) or multiple modes (multimodal)
Identify the range as a Loading to describe variation in a dataset
Compare simple datasets using the mean, median, mode and range
Informally identify clusters, gaps and Loading in datasets and give reasons for their occurrence in the context of the data
Identify and explain the impact of adding or removing data values that are clustered at one end of a dataset on the measures of centre
Identify and explain the impact of outliers on the measures of centre and range
Determine and justify the most appropriate measure of centre to summarise the data in its context
Identify and describe the shape and distribution of a dataset using the terms Loading , negatively skewed and positively skewed
Define a census as a study of every unit, everyone or everything in a population
Define a Loading as a subset of units in a population selected to represent all units in a population of interest
Draw conclusions and make informed decisions about data gathered using data-collection techniques, including census and sampling, which is then presented in Loading , Loading and charts
