Transcription de la présentation

  1. Understanding Standards: Applications of Mathematics (National 5) An overview of course assessment

  2. What this presentation covers • Lifeskills Mathematics to be renamed Applications of Mathematics • revised course assessment structure • an overview of the course components • what is changed/unchanged • grading • guidance on preparing candidates for the course assessment

  3. Lifeskills Mathematics to be renamed Applications of Mathematics • Applications of Mathematics is the new name for Lifeskills Mathematics. • The course will continue to support numeracy and develop learners’ mathematical reasoning skills for learning, life and work. • N5 documents from session 2017-18 onwards will now carry this new name.

  4. Revised course assessment structure The course assessment will consist of two components: • Component 1: question paper — paper 1 (non-calculator) • Component 2: question paper — paper 2 (calculator allowed)

  5. An overview of the course components Paper 1 (non-calculator) • number of marks increased from 35 to 45 • exam time increased from 50 minutes to 65 minutes Paper 2 (calculator allowed) • number of marks increased from 55 to 65 • exam time increased from 1 hour 40 minutes to 2 hours

  6. What is unchanged • the proportion of C level marks remains at 65% • balance of strategy, process and communication marks • course aims and rationale

  7. What is changed in the course components • Paper 1 will contain short-answer and extended-response questions, most of which are in context. • Paper 2 will contain short-answer questions, extended-response questions and case studies, most of which are in context.

  8. What is changed in the course content • calculation of the mode has been added to the content

  9. Grading The range of notional scores for each grade in the course assessment will be: • A: 70% - 100% • B: 60% - 69% • C: 50% - 59% • D: 40% - 49%

  10. Guidance on preparing candidates for the course assessment Candidates should: • show all working clearly • state units where appropriate • maintain and practice number skills • maintain and practice previously acquired skills • practice medium and extended case study questions • practice questions that require a valid reason or explanation to be given
