Eddie Woo and David Watson join the CPL to
present a course designed to assist teachers to
implement the new Standard Stage 6 Mathematics
Syllabus
The course will include coverage of new course content and assessment structures in the syllabuses, an
exploration of the reasons behind the changes, and the implications of this for your teaching. There will be a
strong focus on practical approaches to planning, programming, assessment and resourcing for Years 11 and 12.
Sessions will provide participants with opportunities to develop and share their understanding of new content
areas. Key links between content and opportunities for assignments and research based tasks will be considered
as well as opportunities to experience and analyse different assessment tasks. Participants will plan a scope and
sequence for Years 11 – 12 for one course, using their knowledge and understanding gained from earlier sessions
and focus on creating a research task or assignment, identifying appropriate timing and content within their
scope and sequence.
David and Eddie are the Head Teachers of Mathematics at Cherrybrook Technology High School. They have
experiences in a broad range of school contexts, a proven record of academic success with their students, and a
desire to cultivate innovative teaching practices that foster positive learning experiences for the full diversity of
students who study mathematics.
All financial members of the NSW Teachers Federation are eligible to apply to attend CPL courses and
conferences. The fee for the course is $180. Relief costs will be met by your school.
The courses will be held in the Sapphire Room of the
Blacktown RSL, Second Avenue, Blacktown
and
The Heritage Room, 23 – 33 Mary Street, Surry Hills
