MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL MATHEMATICS AT ISG
MATHEMATICS KNOWS NO RACES OR GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARIES; FOR
MATHEMATICS, THE CULTURAL WORLD IS ONE COUNTRY.
DAVID HILBERT (1862−1943)
The role played by mathematics is essential, both in school and in society: it promotes universality of language
and analytical reasoning, which in turn help develop logical and critical thinking. Correct understanding and use
of mathematics build confidence for problem-solving and decision-making in everyday life. Mathematics also
serves as a foundation for the study of sciences, engineering and technology, economics and other social sciences.
ISG Middle and High School (IMHS) Mathematics is a school-based curriculum articulated over five years; it aims
to equip all students with the knowledge, understanding and intellectual capabilities to address further courses in
mathematics at the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme (DP) level, as well as to prepare
students to use mathematics in their workplace and life in general. It combines themes from the IB Middle Years
Programme, the requirements for the Italian national examination at the end of 8th grade, and tested practices
developed at ISG over the years by the mathematics faculty.
The four main objectives of IMHS Mathematics support the IB learner profile, promoting the development of
students who are knowledgeable, inquirers, communicators and reflective learners.
Knowledge and understanding promotes learning mathematics with understanding, allowing students to
interpret results, make conjectures and use mathematical reasoning when solving problems in school and in reallife situations.
Investigating patterns supports inquiry-based learning. Through the use of investigations, teachers challenge
students to experience mathematical discovery, recognize patterns and structures, describe these as relationships
or general rules, and explain their reasoning using mathematical justifications and proofs.
Communication in mathematics encourages students to use the language of mathematics and its different forms
of representation, to communicate their findings and reasoning effectively, both orally and in writing.
Reflection in mathematics provides an opportunity for students to reflect upon their processes and evaluate the
significance of their findings in connection to real-life contexts. Reflection allows students to become aware of
their strengths and the challenges they face as learners.
IMHS Mathematics builds on experiences in mathematics learning that students have gained in their time in the
International Primary Curriculum (IPC). At the end of the five-year course, students continuing on to the IB
Diploma Programme will have acquired concepts and developed skills which they will be able to apply and extend
in further DP mathematics courses. In particular, the IMHS Mathematics syllabus reflects the concepts and skills of
the presumed knowledge for the DP courses to allow a smooth transition to DP Mathematics.
The present document contains all the general information relevant to the teaching and learning of Middle and High
School Mathematics at the International School in Genoa. In it, ideas and concepts from the best educational
programs worldwide are adapted to the ISG context and background, and enriched to better match the needs of our
learners.
Further information related to individual mathematics courses and materials can be found in the Course Outlines
published each year and handed out to parents during Open House and to students at the beginning of September.

OBJECTIVES
The objectives state the specific targets and expected outcomes that are set for learning in the subject. They define
what the student will be able to accomplish as a result of studying the subject. These objectives relate directly to
the assessment criteria found in the EVALUATION OF STUDENT PROGRESS section.
Learning outcomes, in terms of acquired concepts and developed skills, are detailed in the SYLLABUS BY GRADE
and SYLLABUS BY KEY KNOWLEDGE AREA sections.
A Knowledge and understanding
IMHS Mathematics promotes learning mathematics with understanding, allowing students to interpret results,
make conjectures and use mathematical reasoning when solving problems in school and in real-life situations.
At the end of the course, students should be able to:



know and demonstrate understanding of the concepts from the four KEY KNOWLEDGE AREAS of
mathematics (number, sets and algebra, functions, geometry and trigonometry, probability and statistics)
use appropriate mathematical concepts and skills to solve problems in both familiar and unfamiliar
situations, including those in real-life contexts
select and apply general rules correctly to make deductions and solve problems, including those in reallife contexts.
9
B Investigating patterns
IMHS Mathematics supports inquiry-based learning. Through the use of investigations, teachers challenge
students to experience mathematical discovery, recognize patterns and structures, describe these as relationships
or general rules, and explain their reasoning using mathematical justifications and proofs.
At the end of the course, students should be able to:





select and apply appropriate inquiry and mathematical problem-solving techniques
recognize patterns
describe patterns as relationships or general rules
draw conclusions consistent with findings
justify or prove mathematical relationships and general rules.
C Communication in mathematics
IMHS Mathematics encourages students to use the language of mathematics and its different forms of
representation, to communicate their findings and reasoning effectively, both orally and in writing.
At the end of the course, students should be able to communicate mathematical ideas, reasoning and findings by
being able to:



use appropriate mathematical language in both oral and written explanations
use different forms of mathematical representation
communicate a complete and coherent mathematical line of reasoning using different forms of
representation when investigating problems.
Students are encouraged to choose and use information and communication technology (ICT) tools as appropriate
and, where available, to enhance communication of their mathematical ideas. Some of the possible ICT tools used
in mathematics include spreadsheets, graph plotter software, dynamic geometry software, computer algebra
systems, mathematics content-specific software, graphic display calculators (GDC), word processing, desktop
publishing, graphic organizers and screenshots.
D Reflection in mathematics
IMHS Mathematics provides an opportunity for students to reflect upon their processes and evaluate the
significance of their findings in connection to real-life contexts. Reflection allows students to become aware of
their strengths and the challenges they face as learners.
At the end of the course, students should be able to:




10
explain whether their results make sense in the context of the problem
explain the importance of their findings in connection to real life where appropriate
justify the degree of accuracy of their results where appropriate
suggest improvements to the method when necessary.
KEY KNOWLEDGE AREAS
NUMBER, SETS AND ALGEBRA
The ability to work with numbers is an essential skill in mathematics. Students are expected to have an
understanding of number concepts and to develop the skills of calculation and estimation. Students should
understand that the use of numbers to express patterns and to describe real-life situations goes back to
humankind’s earliest beginnings, and that mathematics has multicultural roots.
Algebra is an abstraction of the concepts first used when dealing with number and is essential for further learning
in mathematics. Algebra uses letters and symbols to represent number, quantity and operations, and employs
variables to solve mathematical problems.
FUNCTIONS
The concept of function is rightly considered as one of the most important in all of mathematics. It arose as the
necessary mathematical tool for the quantitative study of natural phenomena, and today it is an instrument for the
study of the phenomena and situations of biological sciences, human and social sciences, business,
communications, engineering, and technology.
Mathematics constitutes an essential mean of description, explanation, prediction, and control: for all these
applications, the notions of model and function are vital. Formulas from geometry, physics, and from other
sciences can be taken as examples of functions and explored from diverse viewpoints.
Several recent technological developments may have a very significant role in the study of functions. Especially
important are graphic calculators and computers with appropriate software such as spreadsheets, graph plotters.
GEOMETRY AND TRIGONOMETRY
The study of geometry and trigonometry enhances students’ spatial awareness and provides them with the tools
for analysing, measuring and transforming geometric quantities in two and three dimensions .
PROBABILITY AND STATISTICS
This branch of mathematics is concerned with the collection, analysis and interpretation of quantitative data and
uses the theory of probability to estimate parameters, discover empirical laws, test hypotheses and predict the
occurrence of events.
Through the study of statistics, students should develop skills associated with the collection, organization and
analysis of data, enabling them to present information clearly and to discover patterns. Students will also develop
critical-thinking skills, enabling them to differentiate between what happens in theory (probability) and what is
observed (statistics).
Students should understand both the power and limitations of statistics, becoming aware of their legitimate use in
supporting and questioning hypotheses. Students should use these skills in their investigations and are
encouraged to use information and communication technology (ICT) whenever appropriate.

EVALUATION OF STUDENT PROGRESS
ASSESSMENT POLICY
Assessment in IMHS Mathematics is
1
designed so that students can
a.
demonstrate their learning of concepts in authentic contexts
b.
apply acquired skills to familiar and unfamiliar problems.
2
structured to examine the achievement levels in each of Objectives A, B, C and D.
3
meant to provide teachers with feedback that is used to adapt the teaching and learning strategies
with the aim of meeting each learner's needs.
4
criterion-referenced as opposed to norm-referenced. Please see the ASSESSMENT CRITERIA section
below.
Assessment tasks for mathematics are divided into:
-
Informal assessment, consisting of class worksheets, homework, projects, investigations, presentations,
class participation, etc.
-
Formal assessment, consisting of tests and quizzes under examination conditions.
This reflects the IB Diploma Programme division into Internal Assessment – student investigations developed
over the two-year course – and External Assessment – a series of externally set exams taken at the end of the
second IBDP year.
Assessment is carried out formatively throughout each course: the purpose of formative assessment is to provide
students, parents and teachers with objective and timely feedback on the learner’s progress. Formative
assessment tasks, both informal and formal, are graded on a percent scale based on the assessment criteria listed
in the next section. They contribute to quarter average grades according to the following weighting matrix.

High school students are also assessed summatively. Summative assessment consists of formal benchmarks at the
end of significant portions of each course – i.e. semester finals. A score out of 7 is given to all summative
assessment tasks.
Please see the document “Secondary school grading systems” for further clarification on the calculation of
semester and end-of-year averages and for GPA and letter grade conversions.
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA
The assessment criteria relate directly to the OBJECTIVES as listed in the previous sections.
The approximate weighting of the Objectives is listed below. For a coherent approach to assessment practices
over the entire programme, weights are adjusted from grade level to grade level to match the increased
expectations in terms of mathematical maturity. This means for instance that the relative importance of
reflection and communicative skills grows with respect to pure factual knowledge and recall.

MATEMATICA IN ITALIANO
Il programma di matematica in italiano nasce dall’esigenza di preparare gli studenti secondo le metodologie e i
programmi di studio delle scuole italiane, in vista degli esami di idoneità alla terza media (8th grade).
I nostri programmi sono ministeriali, perciò validi in qualunque scuola italiana, e sono approvati da anni dalle
varie scuole statali italiane.
Il corso prevede l’integrazione del programma internazionale, insistendo sulle differenze di metodo e di curricula
italiani. Gli studenti dovranno impadronirsi dei concetti fondamentali, dovranno saper risolvere problemi e
svolgere esercizi su tutti gli argomenti (talvolta esercizi di ragionamento, talvolta più meccanici), e dovranno
acquisire una solida base per le conoscenze future.
Saranno valutati i compiti a casa, la costanza e l’impegno nel loro svolgimento, i test in classe (sempre con
preavviso), l’attenzione durante le lezioni, l’ordine e la completezza del quaderno, l’impegno in generale.
CURRICULUM REVISION POLICY
A curriculum revision process is established at ISG to ensure that the mathematics syllabus is



adequate to current students’ needs
in line with current educational thinking
pursuant to the current IBDP Mathematics Curriculum and to the Italian State Examinations.
To this effect, the results of student assessment – both internal (e.g. ISG tests) and external (e.g. ISA testing, IBDP
scores) – will be carefully evaluated to identify areas of weakness and strength in the delivery of the curriculum.
A four-year revision cycle is established for each curricular area on a rotation basis, with two curricula revised
each academic year.
REVISION PROCESS AND TIMETABLE
The present document will become effective at the beginning of the academic year 2012-2013. During its first year
of validity, it will be completed and updated in all its parts as a work-in-progress process. It will then be in place in
its definite form for the academic years 2013-2014 and 2014-2015. The next year will be a curriculum review
year, with the new document entering into effect by September 2016.
