Statement of Inquiry |
| Using logic, we can represent and simplify quantities to help explore remarkable discoveries and developments. | Representing patterns of change as relationships can help determine the impact of human decision-making on the environment. | Representing relationships with models can promote and support social entrepreneurship.
| An understanding of patterns created by forms in space can enhance creativity and help express beliefs and values. | Generalizing relationships between measurements can help analyse and generate products, processes and solutions. | Modelling the relationship between quantities can highlight what it means to be human. |
