Welcome to a world of help and resources!
We are delighted to welcome you to our website for teachers and students of this IBDP mathematics course. The Applications and Interpretations course was designed for first teaching in September 2019 and first examinations in May 2021 and was a big step forward for the idea of post 16 mathematics qualifications. The idea of this website is to provide teachers with a one stop shop for ideas, advice, examples and tonnes of resources to help you plan and teach the course. A subscription covers your whole institution and comes with the key Access for Students feature that allows you to share pages with your students, set tasks and monitor their progress. New resources are added all the time, so the site is becoming bigger and bigger. The pages on this getting started section are designed to help you find your way around!
What is in this section?
Site Guide - Maths AI
I have included these pages to help the user get a feel both for the rationale and aims behind this site, how you can expect it to develop and how you might use it. I truly believe that web publishing is the way forward for education because it is so much more versatile than its predecessors and alternatives. This site is an organic resource that changes, develops and improves regularly.
At a glance - for new teachers
We know from experience that many of you out there will be teaching this course for the first time and that it can be a little overwhelming to get your head around all the things that you need to know about and try to achieve. With that in mind we are putting this page together to try and help.
Site Updates
One of the major advantages of web based resources must be that they remain dynamic. Whilst we hope there is already a significant amount of very useful resources on this site, the advantage to subscribers is that they are being constantly updated and added to, so that the resource gets better and better and moves with the times.
Student Access
This page is about how to set up classes so that your students can have access to the resources on this website that you would like them to see. There are lots of good reasons to do this and it is really easy to do.
Schemes of Work
At the beginning of everyone's planning is a through exercise in seeing how it all fits. Matching what you have to achieve with the time and constraints you have. Like so many things in teaching, this is a tricky task and requires a lot of thought.
StudyIB.net
We would like you all to know about this resource we have developed for our SL students. It is written by myself, Daniel Pearcy and Rebecca Baker. It came from a genuine desire to be able to give our own students a really useful support resource as they are doing homework and preparing for exams. The aim is that students everywhere can use this resource to help them review and understand the key concepts from the IB Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation course.
