Chapter Highlights
- The new Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) curricula was introduced in 2019, offering senior secondary students four mathematics options to study: Essential Mathematics, General Mathematics, Mathematical Methods and Specialist Mathematics. Methods and Specialist are calculus-based options, and provide broader and diverse career opportunities post-secondary.
- This chapter investigated senior secondary students’ enrolment in calculus-based mathematics options between 2019 and 2020 in Queensland state schools from different districts.
- Results show a high dropout rate in calculus-based options as students progressed into their initial course/s of study.
- The study argues for resources to be made available to promote continued students’ participation and achievement.
