G.C.E. A/L - Combined Mathematics - Teachers' Guides


G.C.E. A/L - Combined Mathematics - Teachers' Guides 

In the G.C.E (A/L) classes new education reforms were introduced from the year 2017 in accordance with the new education reforms implemented in the interim classes in the year 2015. According to the reforms, the Teachers' Guides for combine mathematics for grade 12 and grade 13 have been prepared. 

The grade 12 and grade 13 Teacher’s Guides have been organized under the titles of competencies and competency levels, content, learning outcomes, and the number of periods. 

The proposed lesson sequence is given for the learning-teaching process. Further, it is expected that these teachers' Guides will help the teachers to prepare their lessons and lessons plans for the purpose of the classroom learning-teaching process. 

Also, it is expected that these Guides will help the teachers to take the responsibility to explains the subject matters more confidently. These teachers' Guides are divided into three parts each for a term. In preparing lesson sequences, attention is given to the sequential order of concepts, students' ability of learning, and teachers' ability of teaching. Therefore sequential order of subject matters in the syllabus and in the teacher's Guides may differ. It is advised to the teachers to follow the sequence as in the teachers' Guide. To attain the learning outcomes mentioned in the teachers' Guide, teachers should consider the subject matters with extra attention. 

Further, it is expected to refer extracurricular materials and reference materials to improve their quality of teaching. Teachers should be able to understand the students, those who are entering grade 12 classes to learn combined mathematics as a subject. Since G.C.E (O/L) is designed for general education, students joining the grade 12 mathematics stream will face some difficulties to learn mathematics. To overcome this shortcoming additional topics on basic Algebra and Geometry are added as pre-request to learn. For this purpose, teachers can use their self-prepared materials or "A beginners course in mathematics" book prepared by NIE. The total number of periods to teach this combined mathematics syllabus is 600. Teachers can be flexible to change the number of periods according to their necessity. 

Teachers can use school-based assessment to assess the students. The teacher has the freedom to make necessary amendments to the specimen lesson plan given in the new teacher’s manual which includes many new features, depending on the classroom and the abilities of the students
