Learning, Teaching and Assessment

Overall Aims:

The overall curriculum aims of the Mathematics Education Key Learning Area are to develop in students:

(a) the ability to think critically and creatively, to conceptualise, inquire and reason mathematically, and to use mathematics to formulate and solve problems in daily life as well as in mathematical contexts and other disciplines;

(b) the ability to communicate with others and express their views clearly and logically in mathematical language;

(c) the ability to manipulate numbers, symbols and other mathematical objects;

(d) number sense, symbol sense, spatial sense, measurement sense and the capacity to appreciate structures and patterns;

(e) a positive attitude towards the learning of mathematics and an appreciation of the aesthetic nature and cultural aspects of mathematics.

Measures to cater for learner diversity

In Forms 1 to 3, high-achieving students from B class to E class are taken out to study in “H” class, where they will receive more challenging lesson materials and exercises. Additionally, test setters will produce videos explaining the more difficult questions from tests using "Explain Everything," which will be uploaded to the Google Classroom for students. Teachers will encourage students to watch these videos if they have trouble understanding the questions, thereby enhancing their motivation for self-directed learning.

Remedial classes for Form 5 students are scheduled for alternate Thursdays, while enrichment classes for Forms 5 and 6 are also held on alternate Thursdays. Furthermore, a pre-mock and a post-mock examination will be organised for Form 6 students to help them excel in the HKDSE mathematics examinations.

 

Gifted Programmes

Gifted junior form students are invited to join the School Math Team for additional lessons to develop their skills and knowledge in advanced mathematics. Some of these students will also participate in various mathematics Olympiad competitions.

Students with high potential are encouraged to participate in enrichment programs organized by local universities. For instance, EPYMT and the Outreach Activities organised by the Department of Mathematics, CUHK and the Enrichment Programme for Gifted Learners hosted by HKUST.
