This session dives into the practical integration of technology in the mathematics curriculum, emphasizing the development of unit plans that incorporate digital tools for teaching financial maths. With the example of the Year 9 and Year 11 VCE General Mathematics curriculum, we will showcase a range of age-appropriate technologies, apps, and digital platforms. These tools are selected for their proven effectiveness in engaging students with financial maths concepts and helping them apply these skills in real-world situations. We'll provide a detailed walkthrough of how these technologies can be embedded within unit plans, offering teachers hands-on strategies for crafting lessons that are not only educational but also highly engaging and relevant to students' lives. By the end of this presentation, educators will have a clear understanding of how to build and implement technology-enhanced unit plans that make financial mathematics accessible and interesting to students across different year levels. Jason, an accomplished educator with a Master's in Teaching from the University of Melbourne, has worked as a SAC Author and Trial Exam Producer. He contributed to VCE materials widely adopted by schools in Victoria and China through the VCE in China program.

Key takeaways:
1. Practical technology integration, learn to embed tech tools in financial maths curriculum.
2. Building engaging unit plans, strategies for dynamic, techenhanced financial maths lessons.
3. Empowering real-world application, equip students with practical financial literacy through technology.

Remember: Digital technologies such as laptops or smart phones will be required to bring in this session.
