Each workbook consists of a collection of mathematical case studies, reflecting the themes of the units in the module.

Each case study is 4-5 pages long and should take the student 1 hour to complete. Each study follows the structure and colour coding shown in the Key Assignment graphic, in the NCCA’s revised Module Descriptor (page 17).

Mathematical Concepts and Skills (MCS) 1-5 (pages 20-21 of Module Descriptor) are incorporated into the case studies as are the learning outcomes for each unit. Differentiation is facilitated by providing an optional section called “Further investigation” at the end of each study.

Guidance, templates (content free) and sign off sheets are provided for the Key Assignments (KA). A KA can be a case study chosen from the workbook or one where the content is generated independently by the student. These will constitute the student’s Portfolio.
