Let Shirly Griffith, Jacaranda’s Director of Publishing, talk you through practical and time-saving strategies you can use to help ensure student success in VCE Mathematics with Jacaranda’s VCE Maths Quest series.
What are teachers saying about the VCE Maths Quest series?
-
“I really love this text. I think you guys have a great balance and also a surplus of resources. I can easily modify tasks, cut, paste [and] reconfigure using your layout. It is a easy to use, smooth and coherent package. I shudder when we consider some other texts. The kids really enjoy being able to try a challenging higher level [question] in Reasoning and Problem Solving.”
PAUL SAPIANO
Parade College -
“The examples provided in the Jacaranda Methods books are numerous and stepped out as to greatly assist our students. In addition, the problems in the book are closer in nature to the type they’ll encounter on SACs and exams when compared to other textbooks. The formatting, layout, colour choices, and resources have all been key factors in our decision.”
STACY POULIOT
Teacher, Marian College Sunshine West -
“The resources are fantastic. The worked examples are great for students to build their capacity to understand the methodology as well as to help build their confidence. The inclusion of the CAS calculator instructions/demonstrations is another extremely valuable aspect of the text.”
ASHLEY BISHOP
Head of Department, Hoppers Crossing Secondary College -
“Used Maths Quest for last 10 years and very happy with product, the variation in levels of difficulty and the way students are led through increasingly complex problems is very useful.”
