Build Me Up VCE – Event Overview

Build Me Up VCE is a comprehensive professional learning program designed to support teachers who are new to teaching a VCE Mathematics subject, or who want to strengthen their subject knowledge, confidence and pedagogical practice.

Unlike a one-off professional learning day, Build Me Up provides sustained support across the year. Through a combination of face-to-face workshops, topic-specific deep-dive webinars and live Q&A sessions, participants are supported to develop both the mathematical knowledge and practical teaching strategies needed to successfully navigate their VCE subject.

What participants will explore

  • VCAA requirements and expectations
  • the structure and flow of the relevant study design
  • key mathematical concepts and skills
  • effective sequencing of topics and learning
  • common student misconceptions and areas of difficulty
  • assessment practices and preparation for VCE assessment
  • effective pedagogical approaches
  • practical strategies and resources for classroom implementation

Participants also have opportunities to ask questions, discuss challenges arising in their own classrooms and learn alongside experienced mathematics educators and other teachers of the subject.

More than a one-off professional learning event

Build Me Up VCE is designed to give teachers more than information about a study design. It provides an ongoing professional learning community and structured support across the teaching year, helping teachers build the knowledge, confidence and practical capability to teach their subject effectively.
