VCE Mathematics School-assessed Coursework Resource

The VCE Mathematics School-assessed Coursework Resource (2000), originally developed as a CD-ROM by the then Victorian Board of Studies and Cambridge University Press, has now been made available online by the VCAA and Cambridge University Press so that teachers can continue to access and use these materials. The resource was created to provide a digital version of the VCE Mathematics Common Assessment Task (CAT) Investigative Project and Challenging Problem materials (1989–1999), with illustrative examples that can be drawn on to assist teachers to devise their own tasks for School-assessed Coursework (SACs). The resource can now be accessed from the VCE Further Mathematics, VCE Mathematical Methods and VCE Specialist Mathematics study webpages.
