About the authors

Cambridge Senior Mathematics for Queensland: Essential Mathematics offers a practical interpretation of the syllabus and innovative digital capabilities to encourage students to understand concepts and apply their skills within a real-world context.

  • Written specifically for the new Queensland syllabus by an experienced team of Queensland educators who have taught at all levels and at all types of schools and have much success with developing resources for Prevocational Mathematics. 
  • Offers clear opportunities for teachers to differentiate learning and cater for the various needs of students taking this subject, including scaffolded questions for learning and unscaffolded questions for assessment practice.
  • Encourages students to solve mathematical problems in contexts that are relevant to their lives and future careers, and will prepare them for their internal assessments.
  • Provides vital revision and assessment preparation:
    • A test of prerequisite knowledge and skills is given at the start of each chapter. For those who need to revise, the Interactive Textbook links to previous years' lessons on Cambridge HOTmaths.
    • Assessment-style questions are provided in the chapter reviews, with Degree-of-difficulty indicated and cross-referenced to the section in the chapter.
    • Superior internal assessment support includes practice exams and PSMTs for QCAA assessment requirements (IA1, IA2/CIA, IA3 and IA4) in the Interactive Textbook, along with a complete second set in the Online Teaching Suite, unseen by students. Solutions or model answers are provided.
  • The Interactive Textbook and Online Teaching Suite, powered by Cambridge HOTmaths, provide a new level of digital support for teaching, learning, assessment and reporting through integrated digital resources and a powerful Learning Management System.
