12MAC

Year 12 Mathematics with Calculus (12MAC)

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr Z. Irani.

Welcome to Calculus world.
The 12MATC course is designed to build upon the foundational concepts of Algebra introduced in Level 1 NCEA and further develop students' understanding of calculus. This course will give students a solid grounding in Algebra, and emphasis will be placed on both theoretical knowledge and practical applications, allowing students to develop problem-solving skills essential for success in tertiary-level mathematics and related fields.
Students will be offered the opportunity to gain a total of 18 unique credits, consisting of 9 credits from internally assessed standards and 9 credits from externally assessed standards. Completing this course will facilitate entry into the Level 3 Mathematics with Calculus program. The course also offers an opportunity for subject endorsement.
