New developments are underway to update the IB Diploma Programme (DP) Mathematics curriculum for educators to start teaching in 2019.
The changes to DP mathematics courses will offer more choice to a greater number of students as well as giving schools greater flexibility in the way they group students, schedule lessons and teach.
DP Mathematics will focus on developing the skills of:
- Analysis
- Abstraction and generalisation
- Risk awareness and statistical literacy
- Algorithmic thinking
- Modelling and inquiry
The more diverse needs, interests and motivations of students will also aim to be met.
