Course Description and Objectives 

Mathematics is a science and a universal language that helps us understand reality. It makes an important contribution to a person’s intellectual development, thereby shaping the construction of his or her identity. Its mastery is a significant asset when carving out a place for oneself in a society that benefits from its many practical applications. It also remains essential for students who wish to continue their education in certain fields.

Assessment & Subject Specific Competencies

Competencies are progressive, comprehensive and integrated.  Development of the competencies will occur through a variety of learning activities.  These will require students to engage in both simple and complex learning situations using a wide variety of strategies such as: independent and group-based project work (resulting in oral, written or performance outcomes), field trips, essays, portfolios, student-teacher conferences and quizzes. Assessment of the subject-specific competencies is criterion-based, according to the MATHEMATICS Achievement Scales established by the Ministry of Education, Sports and Leisure.  The table below describes the specific competencies and the relative weighting.
