Topic outline

General
VET Maths 1
This program has been written to meet the needs of students who are interested in pursuing an
industry pathway (e.g. Automotive Engineering, Doorways to Construction, Electrical Technology &
Engineering).
Section 1 consists of a basic generic mathematics course to improve the skills common to all industry
areas. Everyone needs to complete this section.
Section 2 involves more specialised training in an industry pathway. Complete one industry area only,
either one that interests you or one that matches the VET program you are doing.
This is a single unit of Stage 1 Mathematics.
So what has maths got to do with it?

Backup file for this course
You can use the link below to download the backup file for this
course (which contains all content except this last panel).
Download the zip file to your hard drive, then use Moodle's 'restore'
function at your own Moodle site to recreate the course.
Because this course contains many video files, it exceeds the DECS
limit for Moodle upload as a single file. If you wish to use the course
on your own site, you will need to download some additional files
which have been temporarily removed from the backup, then follow
simple instructions to recreate the course in its entirety. The
instructions and additional files are available below.
You can then edit the course to suit your students and local
resources, exactly as if you had created it yourself.
