Pathways

Numeracy Requirements for NCEA Level 1

The numeracy requirement for NCEA Level 1 changes from the current 8 credits to 10 credits from 2012.

Numeracy can be acquired through:

Either Unit standards.Three numeracy unit standards (all 3 needed)

Or Achievement standards.Any AS in mathematics and statistics ORSpecific AS available in a range of subjects

Three Numeracy Unit Standards (Draft titles):

Statistics•Interpret statistical information in solving a problem

Measurement•Use measurement to solve problems

Number•Use number to solve problems

Numeracy unit standards: Number, Measurement, Statistics

Three Achievement Standards◦AS 1.1 Number◦AS 1.10 Statistics*◦AS 1.12 Chance and Data*

* Numeracy and Literacy◦AS 1.5 Measurement replace Chance and

Interpret Statistical Information in Solving a Problem

Focuses on statistical literacy: Interpreting statistical information to draw conclusions that contribute to answering a question related to the overall objective of the learning.

Note:Data may be supplied to the students. Students may use data they have collected.

Element 1 ( This is one element standard)Interpret statistical information in solving a problem

Performance Criteria1.1 The general features of the information are identifiedRange: general features may include but are not limited to

-measures of centre (mean, median, mode)-measures of spread -trends-unusual features ( eg extreme values)

1.2 Conclusions are drawn based on the evidence from the statistical information1.3 The conclusions drawn are appropriate and reasonable in terms of the information provided and the problem.

Interpret Statistical Information in Solving a Problem

Example for the statistics unit standard

A student is interested in athletics. As part of a statistical investigation, she:

• gathers statistical information for world record times for the men’s 100m,

• identifies features and trends in the data, and• makes tentative suggestions about when the record might

reach 9.5s.Evidence for statistics standard may be gathered from the

second two bullet points.

Use Measurement to Solve ProblemsFocuses on students taking their own measurements, using them in simple calculations and using the result in a meaningful way to solve a problem relevant to the context.

This involves more than just taking a measurement and calculating a result from it.

For example: The learning context is ‘redecorating my bedroom’. A student measures the dimensions of a wall, calculates the area then decides how much paint to buy in order to paint the wall.

Element 1 ( This is one element standard)Use measurements to solve problems.

Range: measurements include at least four of -length, capacity, mass, angle, time, temperature

Performance Criteria1.1 Effective methods are selected and used to solve problems.

1.2 The methods used are described in terms of their appropriateness to the problems.

Use Measurement to Solve Problems

Element 1 ( This is one element standard)Use number to solve problems.

Performance Criteria

1.1 Effective strategies are used to solve problems.

1.2 The methods used are described in terms of their appropriateness to the problems.

Use Number to Solve Problems

Use Number to Solve ProblemsFocuses on students using a variety of types of numbers and operations in a meaningful way to solve a problem that has currency in the context of the learning.

The result of the calculation must contribute to solving a meaningful problem. This involves more than simply doing calculations just to demonstrate mastery of a skill or procedure.

For example: The learning context is ‘budgeting for my holiday’. A student calculates expenditure and income for a week to determine whether they have enough money to go on a trip at the weekend.
