2 RATIONALE FOR TEACHING ELECTIVE MATHEMATICS The ilities to red, nlyze nd clculte re the three fundmentl skills tht re vitl for living nd working. The level of mthemtics one my study depends upon the type of work or profession one my choose in life nd on one s ptitude nd interest. Elective mthemtics dels with resoning y nlogies, mking judgments through discrimintion of vlues, nlysis of dt, nd communiction of one s thoughts through symolic expression nd grphs. Elective Mthemtics t the Senior High School level uilds on the Core Mthemtics of Senior High School. It is requirement s foundtion for those who would wish to emrk on professionl studies in engineering, scientific reserch, nd numer of studies in tertiry nd other institutions of higher lerning. GENERAL AIMS The syllus is designed to help students to: pprecite the use of mthemtics s tool for nlysis, criticl nd effective thinking. discover order, ptterns nd reltions. 3 communicte their thoughts through symolic expressions nd grphs. 4 develop mthemticl ilities useful in commerce, trde nd pulic service. 5 mke competent use of ICT in prolem solving nd investigtion of rel life situtions.

4 SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING THE SYLLABUS This syllus hs een plnned to incorporte lmost ll rnches of mthemtics: - Alger, Logic, Trigonometry, Coordinte Geometry, Clculus, Liner Trnsformtion, Vectors, Mechnics, Sttistics nd Proility. In rod frmework of this nture, schools will hve to dopt tem teching pproch for this course. Besides, the techer s ttention is drwn to the use of clcultors nd ICT in teching of Elective mthemtics. The syllus hs een uilt on the core mthemtics syllus. It is therefore necessry for the student to hve sound foundtion in core mthemtics. Techers re dvised to red through the entire syllus in order to pprecite its scope nd demnds. Agin, techers re to link up the core nd elective sylluses when deling especilly with the topics. Generl Ojectives Generl ojectives hve een listed t the eginning of ech section. The generl ojectives re linked to the Generl Aims of this suject nd specify the skills nd ehviours the student should cquire fter lerning the units of section. Section nd Units The syllus hs een plnned on the sis of sections nd units. Ech yer s work is divided into sections. A section consists of numer of units nd specific ojectives. The syllus is structured in five columns: Unit, Specific ojectives, Content, Teching nd Lerning Activities nd Evlution. A description of the contents of ech column is s follows: Column Units The units in column re the mjor topics of the section. The numering of the units is different from the numering dopted in other sylluses. The unit numers consist of two digits. The first digit shows the yer or clss, while the second digit shows the numer of the unit. A unit numer like. is interpreted s Unit of SHS. Similrly unit numer like 3.4 mens Unit 4 of SHS3. This type of unit numering hs een dopted to ensure tht the selected topics nd skills re tught ppropritely in the suggested sequence. The order in which the units re rrnged is just to guide you pln your work. If however, you find t some point tht teching nd lerning in your clss will e more effective if you rnch to nother unit efore coming ck to the unit in the sequence, you re encourged to do so. It is hoped tht no topics will e glossed over for lck of time, ecuse it is not desirle to crete gps in students knowledge. Column Specific Ojectives Column shows the specific ojectives for ech unit. The specific ojectives in this syllus egin with numers such s..3 or 3... These numers re referred to s Syllus Reference Numers SRN. The first digit in this elective mthemtics syllus reference numer refers to the yer of the SHS clss; the second digit refers to the unit, while the third digit refers to the rnk order of the specific ojective. For exmple,..3 mens SHS, unit nd specific ojective 3. In other words..3 refers to specific ojective 3 of unit of SHS. Similrly, the syllus reference numer 3... simply mens syllus ojective Numer of unit t SHS3. Using syllus reference numers provides n esy wy for communiction mong techers nd other eductors. It further provides n esy wy for selecting ojectives for test construction. For instnce, if unit hs five specific ojectives , the techer my wnt to se his/her questions on ojectives.4.3 to.4.5 nd not use the other first two specific ojectives. In this wy iv

5 techer would smple the ojectives within units nd within the yer to e le to develop test tht ccurtely reflects the importnce of the vrious concepts nd skills tught in clss. You will note lso tht specific ojectives hve een stted in terms of the student, - i.e., wht the student will e le to do during nd fter instruction nd lerning in the unit. Ech specific ojective hence strts with the following The student will e le to This in effect mens tht the techer hs to ddress the lerning prolems of ech individul student. It mens individulizing your instruction s much s possile such tht the mjority of students will e le to mster the ojectives of ech unit of the syllus. Column 3 Content: The content in the third column of the syllus presents selected ody of informtion tht you will need to use in teching the prticulr unit. In some cses, the content presented is quite exhustive. In other cses, you could dd more informtion to the content presented. Column 4 Teching nd Lerning Activities (T/LA): T/LA ctivities tht will ensure mximum student prticiption in the lessons re presented in column 4. Avoid instrumentl lerning nd drill-oriented methods nd rther emphsize prticiptory teching nd lerning, nd lso emphsize the cognitive, ffective nd psychomotor domins of knowledge in your instructionl system wherever pproprite. You re encourged to re-order the suggested teching nd lerning ctivities nd lso dd to them where necessry in order to chieve optimum student lerning. A suggestion tht will help your students cquire the hit of nlyticl thinking nd e le to pply their knowledge to prolems is to egin ech lesson with rel life prolem. Select rel life or prcticl prolem for ech lesson. The selection must e mde such tht students cn extend the knowledge gined in the previous lesson nd other generic skills to new situtions not specificlly tught in clss. This is to enle students see the relevnce of mthemtics to rel life sitution. At the eginning of lesson, stte the prolem, or write the prolem on the ord. Let students pply (George Poly s) prolem solving techniques, nlyze the prolem, suggest solutions, etc., criticize solutions offered, justify solutions nd evlute the worth of possile solutions. There my e numer of units where you need to re-order specific ojectives to chieve required lerning effects. Column 5 Evlution: Suggestions nd exercises for evluting the lessons of ech unit re indicted in Column 5. Evlution exercises cn e in the form of orl questions, quizzes, clss ssignments, structured questions, project work, etc. Try to sk questions nd set tsks nd ssignments tht will chllenge your students to pply their knowledge to issues nd prolems nd engge them in developing solutions nd developing positive ttitudes towrds the suject s result of hving undergone instruction in this suject. The suggested evlution tsks re not exhustive. You re encourged to develop other cretive evlution tsks to ensure tht students hve mstered the instruction nd ehviour implied in the specific ojectives of ech unit. Lstly, er in mind tht the syllus cnnot e tken s sustitute for lesson plns. It is, therefore, necessry tht you develop scheme of work nd lesson plns for teching the units of this syllus. DEFINITION OF PROFILE DIMENSIONS A centrl spect of this syllus is the concept of profile dimensions tht should e the sis for instruction nd ssessment. A dimension is psychologicl unit for descriing prticulr lerning ehviour. More thn one dimension constitute profile of dimensions. A specific ojective such s follows: The student will e le to descrie etc., contins n ction ver descrie tht indictes wht the student will e le to do fter teching hs tken plce. Being le to descrie something fter the instruction hs een completed mens tht the student hs cquired knowledge. Being le to explin, summrize, give exmples, etc. mens tht the student hs understood the lesson tught. Similrly, eing le to develop, pln, construct etc, mens tht the student hs lernt to crete, innovte or synthesize knowledge. Ech of the specific ojectives in this syllus contins n ction ver tht descries the ehviour the student will e le to demonstrte fter the instruction. Knowledge, Appliction, etc. re dimensions tht should e the prime focus of teching nd lerning in schools. Instruction in most cses hs tended to stress knowledge cquisition to the detriment of other higher level ehviours such s ppliction, nlysis, etc. The v

6 importnce of lerning is to help students to e le to pply their knowledge, develop nlyticl thinking skills, synthesize informtion, nd use their knowledge in vriety of wys to del with lerning prolems nd issues in life. Ech ction ver indictes the underlying profile dimension of ech prticulr specific ojective. Red ech ojective crefully to know the profile dimension towrd which you hve to tech. Profile dimensions descrie the underlying ehviours for teching, lerning nd ssessment. In Elective Mthemtics, the two profile dimensions tht hve een specified for teching, lerning nd testing re: Knowledge nd Understnding 30% Appliction of Knowledge 70% Ech of the dimensions hs een given percentge weight tht should e reflected in teching, lerning nd testing. The weights, indicted on the right of the dimensions, show the reltive emphsis tht the techer should give in the teching, lerning nd testing processes. The focus of this syllus is to get students not only to cquire knowledge ut lso to understnd wht they hve lernt nd pply them in prcticl situtions. The explntion nd key words involved in ech of the dimensions re s follows: Knowledge nd Understnding (KU) Knowledge The ility to: Rememer informtion, recognize, retrieve, locte, find, do ullet pointing, highlight, ookmrk, network socilly, ookmrk socilly, serch, google, fvourite, recll, identify, define, descrie, list, nme, mtch, stte principles, fcts nd concepts. Knowledge is simply the ility to rememer or recll mteril lredy lerned nd constitutes the lowest level of lerning. Understnding The ility to: Interpret, explin, infer, compre, explin, exemplify, do dvnced serches, ctegorize, comment, twitter, tg, nnotte, suscrie, summrize, trnslte, rewrite, prphrse, give exmples, generlize, estimte or predict consequences sed upon trend. Understnding is generlly the ility to grsp the mening of some mteril tht my e verl, pictoril, or symolic Appliction of Knowledge (AK) The ility to use knowledge or pply knowledge, s implied in this syllus, hs numer of lerning/ehviour levels. These levels include ppliction, nlysis, innovtion or cretivity, nd evlution. These my e considered nd tught seprtely, pying ttention to reflect ech of them eqully in your teching. The dimension Applying Knowledge is summry dimension for ll four lerning levels. Detils of ech of the four su levels re s follows: Appliction Anlysis The ility to: Apply rules, methods, principles, theories, etc. to concrete situtions tht re new nd unfmilir. It lso involves the ility to produce, solve, operte, demonstrte, discover, implement, crry out, use, execute, run, lod, ply, hck, uplod, shre, edit etc. The ility to: Brek down piece of mteril into its component prts, to differentite, compre, deconstruct, ttriute, outline, find, structure, integrte, msh, link, vlidte, crck, distinguish, seprte, identify significnt points etc., recognize unstted ssumptions nd logicl fllcies, recognize inferences from fcts etc. vi

7 Innovtion/Cretivity Innovtion or cretivity involves the ility to: Put prts together to form novel, coherent whole or mke n originl product. It involves the ility to comine, compile, compose, devise, construct, pln, produce, invent, devise, mke, progrm, film, nimte, mix, re-mix, pulish, video cst, podcst, direct, rodcst, suggest n ide or possile wys, revise, design, orgnize, crete, nd generte new ides nd solutions. The ility to innovte or crete is the highest form of lerning. The world ecomes more comfortle ecuse some people, sed on their lerning, generte new ides nd solutions, design nd crete new things. Evlution - The ility to pprise, compre fetures of different things nd mke comments or judgments, contrst, criticize, justify, hypothesize, experiment, test, detect, monitor, review, post, moderte, collorte, network, refrctor, support, discuss, conclude, mke recommendtions etc. Evlution refers to the ility to judge the worth or vlue of some mteril sed on some criteri nd stndrds. Evlution is constnt decision mking ctivity. We generlly compre, pprise nd select throughout the dy. Every decision we mke involves evlution. Evlution is high level ility just s ppliction, nlysis nd innovtion or cretivity since it goes eyond simple knowledge cquisition nd understnding. The ction vers provided under the vrious profile dimensions nd in the specific ojectives of the syllus should help you to structure your teching such s to chieve the effects needed. Select from the ction vers provided for your teching, in evluting lerning efore, during nd fter the instruction. Use the ction vers lso in writing your test questions. FORM OF ASSESSMENT It must e emphsized gin tht it is importnt tht oth instruction nd ssessment e sed on the profile dimensions of the suject. In developing ssessment procedures, select specific ojectives in such wy tht you will e le to ssess representtive smple of the syllus ojectives. Ech specific ojective in the syllus is considered criterion to e chieved y the student. When you develop test tht consists of items or questions tht re sed on representtive smple of the specific ojectives tught, the test is referred to s Criterion-Referenced Test. In mny cses, techer cnnot test ll the ojectives tught in term, in yer, etc. The ssessment procedure you use i.e. clss tests, home work, projects, etc. must e developed in such wy tht it will consist of smple of the importnt ojectives tught over period. The exmple elow shows n exmintion consisting of two ppers, Pper nd Pper. School Bsed ssessment hs een dded to the structure. Pper will usully e n ojective-type pper; Pper will consist of structured questions demnding higher order thinking, nd school sed ssessment will consist numer of tsks. The distriution of mrks for the questions in the two ppers should e in line with the weights of the profile dimensions lredy indicted nd s shown in the lst column of the tle elow. The West Africn Exmintions Council (WAEC) generlly sets out 40 ojective test items t the WASSCE. Use this s guide to develop n ojective test pper (Pper ) tht consists of 40 items. Pper could consist of some structured questions nd more demnding questions put in sections. In generl, let students nswer the compulsory section nd t lest four questions from ten questions put in three prts in Pper. In the smple ssessment structure presented elow, Pper is mrked out of 00; Pper is mrked out of 00 nd school sed ssessment is mrked out of 60, giving totl of 60 mrks. Depending upon the school s exmintion nd mrking systems, you could use totl mrk convenient to the techer nd the school. Ber in mind of course, tht using different totl mrk will chnge the mrk lloctions for the test ppers, etc. vii

8 The lst row shows the weight of the mrks llocted to ech of the four test components. The two ppers nd SBA re weighted differently. Pper, the ojective test pper is weighted 0%. Pper is more intellectully demnding pper nd is therefore weighted more thn the ojective test pper. Pper is designed to test minly ppliction of knowledge. Ppers nd the SBA re weighted 30%, nd 50% respectively. Dimensions Pper Pper Distriution of Exmintion Pper Weights nd Mrks School Bsed Assessment Totl Mrks % Weight of Dimension Knowledge nd Understnding Appliction of Knowledge Totl Mrks % Contriution of Pper You will note tht Pper hs contriution of 0% to the totl mrks; Pper hs contriution of 30% to the totl mrks nd SBA hs contriution of 50% to the totl mrks. The numers in the cells indicte the mrks to e llocted to the items/questions tht test ech of the dimensions within the respective ppers. The lst ut one column shows the totl mrks llocted to ech of the dimensions. The numers in this column re dditions of the numers in the cells nd they gree with the profile dimension weights indicted in the lst column. Of the totl mrks of 0, the 78 mrks for Knowledge nd Understnding is equivlent to 30%. The 8 mrks for Appliction is equivlent to 70% of the totl mrks. Item Bnk: Oviously the structure of ssessment recommended in this syllus will need lot of work on the prt of the techer. In preprtion for setting exmintion ppers, try to develop n item nk. The term item nk is generl term for pool of ojective items, nd essy questions. As you tech the suject, try to write ojective test items, essy questions nd structured essy questions To fit selected specific ojectives which you consider importnt to e tested. If you proceed diligently, you will relize you hve written more thn 00 ojective test items, nd more thn 30 essy questions in spce of one yer. Rndomly select from the item nk to compose the test ppers. Select with replcement. This mens, s items/questions re selected for testing, new ones hve to e written to replce those items/questions lredy used in exmintions. Items nd questions tht hve een used in exmintions my lso e modified nd stored in the item nk. An importnt issue in the preprtion for mjor exmintion such s the WASSCE, is the issue of test wiseness. To e test wise mens tht the student knows the mechnics for tking test. These mechnics include writing the index numer nd other prticulrs ccurtely nd quickly on the nswer pper; reding ll questions efore selecting the est questions to nswer; pportioning equl time to ech question or spending more time on questions tht crry more mrks; mking notes on ech question ttempted efore writing the nswer; leving extr time to red over one s work; finlly checking to see tht the personl prticulrs supplied on the nswer sheet re ccurte. Some good students sometimes fil to do well in mjor exmintions ecuse of wekness in the mechnics of test tking; ecuse they re not test wise. Tke your finl yer students through these necessry mechnics so tht their performnce in mjor exmintions my not e flwed y the slightest wekness in test tking. viii

9 GUIDELINES FOR SCHOOL-BASED ASSESSMENT (SBA) A new School Bsed Assessment system (SBA) will e introduced into the school system in 0. The new SBA system is designed to provide schools with n internl ssessment system tht will help schools to chieve the following purposes: o o o o o o o Stndrdize the prctice of internl school-sed ssessment in ll Senior High Schools in the country Provide reduced ssessment tsks for sujects studied t SHS Provide techers with guidelines for constructing ssessment items/questions nd other ssessment tsks Introduce stndrds of chievement in ech suject nd in ech SHS clss Provide guidnce in mrking nd grding of test items/questions nd other ssessment tsks Introduce system of modertion tht will ensure ccurcy nd reliility of techers mrks Provide techers with dvice on how to conduct remedil instruction on difficult res of the syllus to improve clss performnce. SBA my e conducted in schools using the following: Mid-term test, Group Exercise, End-of-Term Test nd Project. Project: This will consist of selected topic to e crried out y groups of students for yer. Segments of the project will e crried out ech term towrd the finl project completion t the end of the yer. The projects my include the following: i) experiment ii) investigtive study (including cse study)\ iii) prcticl work ssignment A report must e written for ech project undertken.. Mid-Term Test: The mid-term test following prescried SBA formt 3. Group Exercise: This will consist of written ssignments or prcticl work on topic(s) considered importnt or complicted in the term s syllus 4. End-of-Tem Test: The end of-term test is summtive ssessment system nd should consist of the knowledge nd skills students hve cquired in the term. The end-of-term test for Term 3 for exmple, should e composed of items/questions sed on the specific ojectives studied over the three terms, using different weighting system such s to reflect the importnce of the work done in ech term in pproprite proportions. For exmple, techer my uild n End-of-Term 3 test in such wy tht it would consist of the 0% of the ojectives studied in Term, 0% of ojectives studied in Term nd 60% of the ojectives studied in Term 3. ix

10 GRADING PROCEDURE To improve ssessment nd grding nd lso introduce uniformity in schools, it is recommended tht schools dopt the following WASSCE grde structure for ssigning grdes on students test results. The WASSCE structure is s follows: Grde A: 80-00% - Excellent Grde B: 70-79% - Very Good Grde B3: 60-69% - Good Grde C4: 55-59% - Credit Grde C5: 50-54% - Credit Grde C6: 45-49% - Credit Grde D7: 40-44% - Pss Grde D8: 35-39% - Pss Grde F9: 34% nd elow - Fil In ssigning grdes to students test results, you re encourged to pply the ove grde oundries nd the descriptors which indicte the mening of ech grde. The grde oundries i.e., 60-69%, 50-54% etc., re the grde cut-off scores. For instnce, the grde cut-off score for B grde is 70-79% in the exmple. When you dopt fixed cut-off score grding system s in this exmple, you re using the criterion-referenced grding system. By this system student must mke specified score to e wrded the requisite grde. This system of grding chllenges students to study hrder to ern etter grdes. It is hence very useful system for grding chievement tests. Alwys rememer to develop nd use mrking scheme for mrking your clss exmintion scripts. A mrking scheme consists of the points for the est nswer you expect for ech question, nd the mrks llocted for ech point rised y the student s well s the totl mrks for the question. For instnce, if question crries 0 mrks nd you expect 6 points in the est nswer, you could llocte 3 mrks or prt of it (depending upon the qulity of the points rised y the student) to ech point, hence totling 8 mrks, nd then give the remining mrks or prt of it for orgniztion of nswer. For ojective test ppers you my develop n nswer key to speed up the mrking. In ssigning grdes to students test results, you my pply the ove grde oundries nd the descriptions, which indicte the mening of ech grde. The grde oundries re lso referred to s grde cut-off scores. When you dopt fixed cut-off score grding system you re using the criterion-referenced grding system. By this system student must mke specified score to e wrded the requisite grde. This system of grding chllenges students to study hrder to ern etter grdes. It is hence very useful system for grding chievement tests. x
