"Mathematics - a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture"

Mathematics HL 

​What is math?

Mathematics is required by both artists when considering perspective and scientists
when performing research. Math is a lot more than just dealing with the numbers - it’s also a language in which the universe speaks to us. It allows us to speak and
communicate the ideas that are difficult or impossible otherwise. The elegance and
power of mathematics is that it never lies to you.

​What is math HL?

The higher level mathematics offers an excellent level of knowledge and skills for
further studies in, for example, physics, mathematics and technology. The students
taking higher level mathematics will also be luck enough to study optional calculus at
more advanced level.
"The IB DP higher level mathematics course focuses on developing important mathematical
concepts in a comprehensible, coherent and rigorous way, achieved by a carefully balanced
approach. Students are encouraged to apply their mathematical knowledge to solve problems
set in a variety of meaningful contexts. Development of each topic should feature
justification and proof of results. Students should expect to develop insight into mathematical
form and structure, and should be intellectually equipped to appreciate the links between
concepts in different topic areas. They are also encouraged to develop the skills needed to
continue their mathematical growth in other learning environments.
The internally assessed exploration allows students to develop independence in
mathematical learning. Students are encouraged to take a considered approach to various
mathematical activities and to explore different mathematical ideas. The exploration also
allows students to work without the time constraints of a written examination and to develop
the skills they need for communicating mathematical ideas." IBO Math HL

Who it is for?

“Math HL is the most beautiful things that happened to me during my diploma program”
“The course is quite challenging and because of this very reason I like this course :)”
Math HL students
The Mathematics HL course caters for students with a very strong background and
interest in Mathematics. They are expected to have attained a high degree of
competence in a range of mathematical and technical skills. The course is designed
mainly for the students who expect to study Mathematics at university, either as a
subject in its own right or as a major component of a related subject.
Mathematics HL is quite demanding and the students embarking on this course are
expected to spend a considerable amount of time and energy. A key skill is to develop
logical, critical and creative thinking, and patience and persistence in
problem-solving. They should be intellectually equipped to appreciate the connections
between different mathematical ideas and concepts.

AIM of the course 

Picture
The aims of all mathematics courses in group 5 are to enable students to:
1. enjoy mathematics, and develop an appreciation of the elegance and power of mathematics
2. develop an understanding of the principles and nature of mathematics
3. communicate clearly and confidently in a variety of contexts
4. develop logical, critical and creative thinking, and patience and persistence in problem-solving
5. employ and refine their powers of abstraction and generalization
6. apply and transfer skills to alternative situations, to other areas of knowledge and to future
7. appreciate how developments in technology and mathematics have influenced each other
8. appreciate the moral, social and ethical implications arising from the work of mathematicians and the applications of mathematics
9. appreciate the international dimension in mathematics through an awareness of the universality of mathematics and its multicultural and historical perspectives
10. appreciate the contribution of mathematics to other disciplines, and as a particular “area of knowledge” in the TOK course.
