Apply knowledge of statistics and probability to critically interrogate and effectively communicate findings on life related problems
Purpose
- This Unit Standard is designed to provide credits towards the mathematical literacy requirement of the NQF at Level 4.
- The essential purposes of the mathematical literacy requirement are 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.
Learning Outcomes
- 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
Target Market
- Adult learners seeking mathematical literacy
- Working professionals
- Students pursuing NQF Level 4 qualifications
Learning Assumed
- The credit value is based on the assumption that people starting to learn towards this unit standard are competent in Mathematical Literacy and Communications at NQF level 3.
