TAP> Solving Problems with Data and Probability

Course Purpose

This unit standard is designed to provide credits towards the mathematical literacy requirement of the NQF at Level 3. 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 managing everyday living needs 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 become a participating citizen. People credited with this unit standard can pose questions and collect and organise data. Represent and interpret data using various techniques to investigate real-life and work problems. Use random events to explore and apply probability concepts in simple life and work-related situations.
