struggling to do this assignment and need someone to do it
DUE DATE: Assignment must be submitted by 11:59 pm Friday, 15th January 2021.
In order for mathematics to be seen as being relevant to a person’s life it needs to be linked to real life. This assignment has been designed around a real life scenario that will involve the use of financial literacy skills. In completing the investigation you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the content and processes relevant to this Unit.
PURPOSE - LINKS TO THE UNIT OUTCOMES
The assignment links with outcomes 1 to of the unit outcomes. However, links with other outcomes may take place depending upon the focus of the investigation.
This assignment involves the use of a financial literacy investigation. You are required to write a report on your investigation of alternative options for mathematical resources for your class.
The assessment topic will give you the opportunity to:
(i) investigate a real life problem.
(ii) investigate the type of mathematics that is inherent in the solving of everyday problems.
(iii) demonstrate your ability to plan, research and budget.
(iv) demonstrate your understanding of the concepts, understandings and processes that have been introduced in this unit.
(v) be creative in the way you investigate the problem.
To successfully complete this assignment you need to assume that:
• you will need to show how you can budget and use mathematics in everyday life.
• The decision making process will involve at least two comparisons. For example, if you are costing a particular product you need to compare the costs from at least two different suppliers or similar options and justify your final choice.
Prepare a report on how you would investigate the options for your class. If you have previously completed this unit you are not allowed to use any part of your previous assignment. Treat this assignment as a real-life experience so that your enthusiasm and creativity are evident in your investigation report.
You are working as a teacher in a year of your choice at a school of your choice. You need to buy new mathematics resources for your class, however have no budget to do this. You would like to buy a total of 2 class sets of resources for your class – you can choose two of the general topics of Number Systems, Measurement, and Space and Geometry. You will need to select specific topics within these general topics to concentrate on for your resources. You also need to fund raise to cover the costs of your purchases.
Your assignment needs to include the following:
1. Report on investigation and planning for two mathematical resources.
2. Fund raising options.
3. One of your resources must be a geometric resource.
4. Video resources are encouraged for the description of the different methods used. These can be shared as links within your assignment to YouTube, ShowMe, etc.
5. APA referencing must be used. Link for information on APA Referencing

Your report must contain the following sections:
• Introduction
$ Introduction to your project
$ What mathematical subject areas do you want to address with your assignment?
$ How many of the resources do you think you will need? Are they for individual work, group work etc?
• Fundraising
$ How do you plan to raise the money required to buy your resources?
$ Create a flyer to advertise your fundraiser of choice.
• Financial Comparisons
$ Item 1 – compare in terms of cost at least 2 different mathematical resources for your first subject area.
$ Item 2 - compare in terms of cost at least 2 different mathematical resources for your second subject area.
$ Fundraising - compare in terms of cost at least 2 different fundraising options.
• Decision Making
$ Item 1 – Justify and explain your decision between the 2 different mathematical resources for your first subject area. Why did you choose that option? What aspects did you consider? You do not need to select the cheapest option.
$ Item 2 - Justify and explain your decision between the 2 different mathematical resources for your second subject area. Why did you choose that option? What aspects did you consider? You do not need to select the cheapest option.
$ Fundraising - Justify and explain your decision between the 2 different fundraising options. Why did you choose that option? What aspects did you consider? You do not need to select the cheapest option.
• Financial Budget
$ Finalised budget for your assignment including: Income, Costs and any projected profit
$ Total cost involved and a breakdown of ALL of the individual costs into fractions of the total cost.
$ Total cost involved and a breakdown of ALL of the individual costs into percentages of the total cost.
$ For each individual cost, explanation of how the fractions and percentages were calculated.
$ Visual representation of the budget breakdown – i.e. pie chart etc.
This brief introduction will introduce the different mathematical subject area that you would like to address with your assignment.
How many resources do you think you will need? Are they for individual work, group work etc?
This brief statement needs to discuss the factors that were taken into account when determining the fundraising initiatives to raise the money for your assignment. You need to compare two different ideas for fundraising.
You should estimate the number of students involved in your class. The estimated level of participation should be clearly defined and used to estimate the total income for your fundraising.
In this section provide a sample fundraising flyer with all necessary information included.
In this section you are required to include:
• At least 2 comparisons of the different options and costs for each financial consideration. For example, you need to compare the costs of at least two different resources that can be used for your class and justify your final choice. You may choose to compare
o different resources to teach your students about adding and subtracting fractions.
o different resources to teach your class about surface area.
