 Mathematics underpins everything we do in our daily lives. It gives us a way of thinking logically and systematically. There's been a global shift in the emphasis from procedural skills and knowledge to more the application and the ways of thinking mathematically. So Akara is engaged with mathematics experts globally and the research to provide a curriculum that gives opportunity for students to really develop these skills and apply them to both familiar and unfamiliar contexts. The key areas to be improved in mathematics are a shift in the emphasis from skills and procedures to more processes and ways of thinking and reasoning and an emphasis on the various approaches to mathematics experimenting, investigating, modelling and simulation. With the introduction of technology students can apply their thinking to multiple questions and multiple problems rather than being restricted to just procedures and skills. So Akara has been engaging with teachers both primary and secondary from all states, territories and jurisdictions and curriculum specialist and collaborated with international organisations like the Centre of Curriculum Redesign in Boston and Cambridge Maths in the UK. So Akara is going to create a mathematics curriculum that provides the opportunity for students to engage with the mathematics to do the thinking to apply their mathematics to both familiar and unfamiliar situations and to see the mathematics in everyday life. It is really important we hear your views your responses will help shape the Australian curriculum for the next generation of children. To give your feedback simply complete the survey.
