How we are organising these paths
The initial reference is INADE’s assessment domains. The distribution above is a ZeyrnLab proposal to be adjusted with teachers; the documents consulted do not define a complete, current sequence for each school year.
- Year 9 examination information, 2025 — Mathematics and Physics, pages 7 and 11
- Year 12 examination information, 2025 — Mathematics and Physics, pages 6–7 and 10
- OpenStax — quadratic functions
- OpenStax — centripetal acceleration
- OpenStax — projectile motion
- OpenStax — limits of functions
Each lesson develops the foundations and principles with worked examples, exercises and explained solutions. All 40 lessons already include these elements. Independent pedagogical review by teachers remains a stage of the project; the six labs offer an additional way to explore some topics.
