Course Purpose:

This unit standard is designed to provide credits towards the mathematical literacy requirement of the NQF at Level 4. The essential purpose of the mathematical literacy requirement is that, as the learner progresses with confidence through the levels, the learner will grow in a confident, insightful use of mathematics in the management of the needs of everyday living to become a self-managing person. An understanding of mathematical applications that provides insight into the learner`s present and future occupational experiences `and so develop into a contributing worker. The ability to voice a critical sensitivity to the role of mathematics in a democratic society and so become a participating citizen. People credited with this unit standard can: Critique and use techniques for collecting, organising and representing data. Use theoretical and experimental probability to develop models, make predictions and study problems. Critically interrogate and use probability and statistical models in problem-solving and decision-making in real-world situations.

What will you learn

This course is tailored to meet the mathematical literacy requirements of the NQF at Level 4, aiming to empower learners with the ability to confidently and insightfully apply mathematical principles to everyday life. Participants will develop skills in critiquing and utilising data collection techniques, as well as representing data effectively. The course emphasises the use of theoretical and experimental probability to create models, make predictions, and analyse real-world problems. By the end of this course, learners will be adept at employing statistical and probability models for informed decision-making and problem-solving, thereby becoming self-managing individuals, contributing workers, and active, critically sensitive citizens in a democratic society.
