Modular course 5 focused on functions and inferential statistics The course was divided into 4 modules. A brief overview of the content of the modules as well as the resources used in each module are provided here.

Modules 1 and 2

The first two modules of the course focused on content from strand 1 of the syllabuse - statistics.
