Learning outcomes

Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.

On completion of this unit, students should be able to:

Apply Mathematical and Numeracy concepts to solve problems and make informed decisions in everyday and professional contexts.

Collect, analyse and interpret data and apply foundational concepts of probability in ethical and contextual appropriate ways

Use mathematical reasoning to explain and communicate solutions to everyday mathematical problem-solving situations using appropriate numerical, graphical and symbolic mathematical representations.
