Students at IB World Schools are given a unique education. They will: � be encouraged to think independently and drive
their own learning. � take part in programmes of education that can lead
to some of the highest ranking universities around he world.
� become more culturally aware, through the development of a second language.
� be able to engage with people in an increasingly globalized, rapidly changing world.
MYP Math Framework:
� number, algebra, geometry and trigonometry, statistics and probability
� how to represent information, to explore and model situations, and to find solutions to familiar and unfamiliar problems.
How do we ensure that students taking math are receiving an enriched and rigorous education?
We use the following 4 Criteria � Criteria A - Knowing and understanding � Criteria B - Investigating Patterns � Criteria C - Communication � Criteria D - Applying Real Life Context
Criteria A: Knowing and understanding
� are fundamental to studying mathematics
� form the base from which to explore concepts and develop skills
� assesses the extent students can select and apply mathematics solving problems in a variety situations and contexts
Criteria B: Investigating patterns
� allow students to experience the excitement and satisfaction of mathematical discovery
� gives students the opportunity to become risk-takers, inquirers, and critical thinkers. ◦ select and apply mathematical problem-solving
techniques to discover complex patterns ◦ describe patterns as general rules consistent with
findings ◦ prove, or verify and justify, general rules
Criteria C: Communicating
� mathematics is a powerful and universal language.
� students are expected to use appropriate mathematical language to communicate ideas, reasoning and findings; orally, graphically, and in writing.
Criteria D: Applying mathematics in real-life contexts
� identify relevant elements of real-life situations
� select appropriate mathematical strategies when solving real life situations
� apply the selected mathematical strategies successfully to reach a solution
� draw valid conclusions and reflect on their results
IB/DP Program
IB MATHEMATICAL STUDIES (SL only) � students taking this course need to be
already equipped with fundamental skills and a rudimentary knowledge of basic processes.
� students most likely to select this course generally have main interests in social sciences, humanities, languages or arts.
IB MATHEMATICS SL � students taking this course should possess
good to excellent mathematical skills
� the majority of these students are preparing for future studies in subjects such as chemistry, economics, psychology and business
IB MATHEMATICS HL � students taking this course need to possess
excellent mathematical skills, excellent work habits, and a love for mathematics
� The majority of these students are preparing for future studies in mathematics, physics, certain types of engineering, or computer science..
