Understanding IBO’s Objectives for Math AI (HL & SL)
The IB Diploma Programme (DP) assessment objectives for Math AI are designed to:
- Develop an appreciation for the beauty and power of mathematics in real-world contexts.
- Equip students with the skills to solve problems, analyze data, and draw meaningful conclusions.
- Foster effective communication and interpretation of mathematical concepts.
- Promote independent learning and inquiry-based exploration of mathematical ideas.
Key Assessment Components for Math AI
- Paper 1 (SL & HL): Short-response questions testing core concepts and skills across all syllabus areas (technology allowed).
- Paper 2 (SL & HL): Extended-response questions requiring deeper analysis and problem-solving (technology allowed).
- Paper 3 (HL Only): Two extended-response problem-solving questions demanding advanced skills and application of knowledge (technology allowed).
- Internal Exploration (SL & HL): An independent project demonstrating research, analysis, and communication skills within a chosen mathematical area.
