- Description
- This project drew upon state-wide HSC and university enrolment data, Aspirations Longitudinal Study survey data, and semi-structured interviews with students, teachers and parents to investigate the decision-making process surrounding girls’ participation in high level mathematics. Through our investigation we provided a detailed account of: (1) girls’ and boys’ participation in high level HSC mathematics; (2) the aspirations of girls in secondary school for careers requiring high level mathematics; and, (3) factors that influence students’ decisions to/not to participate in high level mathematics.
