This is a mathematical investigation project where you pick a maths topic you're interested in, plan how you'll research it, collect information and data from real sources, and present your findings with mathematical diagrams or explanations. You need to show your thinking throughout the process and reflect on how well your investigation worked.
You set up a clear investigation topic with maths connections, gather data from relevant sources, present it with appropriate diagrams, and show your working throughout.
You not only do the above, but also think about how different parts of your investigation link together (relational thinking), explain your maths choices clearly, and reflect meaningfully on your method and findings.
You demonstrate all of the above plus abstract thinking — you make connections beyond just your own investigation, evaluate the reliability of your sources and findings critically, link your results back to the bigger picture, and show sophisticated reflection on the whole process.
