Course description

IB Mathematics Studies is designed for candidates who do not expect to have a serious need for mathematics in their future careers. It is not an easy option; but it is constructed to give insight into areas of mathematics which may have an impact on their lives. The aim of the Mathematical Studies course is to develop logical; critical; and creative thinking and build an appreciation of mathematics in students. In addition; students will gain an understanding of the world around them through the study of how different cultures perceive and use mathematics. The classroom uses a combination of traditional lecture; guided discovery; and student-driven learning to help them interpret and solve given problems. This course will focus on using a graphic display calculator; number and algebra; figurate numbers; functions; geometry and trigonometry; and statistics. Student assessment will include traditional quizzes and tests; as well as an IB internal assessment which is a project to be completed in IB Math Studies 7/8.
