Accessible, logical, and comprehensive coverage of the new v9.0 Australian Curriculum
New computational thinking activities to solve a range of problems
Real-world maths opportunities
Exceptional integrated digital resources that truly enhance maths learning
Ongoing enhancements on the Cambridge HOTmaths platform ensure students always have access to the best learning experience using digital resources that complement and consolidate classroom teaching.
- New content is introduced in the logical and sequential way you expect from Essential Mathematics to encourage deep understanding.
- Students are supported through the curriculum with carefully graded questions, linked examples and investigations in an uncluttered layout.
- A new technology and computational thinking activity per chapter explores a range of problems linked to the content, and addresses the strengthened focus on computational thinking, algorithms and simulations in the new curriculum.
- These activities ask students to use a computational approach to solving problems, using algorithms, simulations, flowcharts and pseudocode in conjunction with a range of technology such as spreadsheets, Desmos, and CAS calculators.
- Modelling activities, Investigations, Applications and Problem-solving tasks in every chapter provide opportunities for students to apply and consolidate their learning through scaffolded and open-ended tasks, and to understand how modelling and problem-solving skills can be transferred to real-world scenarios.
