Mathematics for the International Student - Standard Level~

Description

This is the less academic version of the two Standard Level (SL) course books. i.e. the difference between Mathematical Studies SL and Mathematics SL is that whilst they both are SL courses, Mathematical Studies SL is the less rigorous of the two. Students who do not plan to study Mathematics at university generally take the Mathematical Studies SL course. Mathematics for the International Student: Mathematics SL (International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme) is an interpretation of the concepts outlined in the IBO Diploma Programme Mathematics SL Guide (first examinations 2006). It is not the intention to define the course, and teachers are encouraged to use other resources. The Authors have developed the book independently of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) in consultation with many experienced teachers of IB Mathematics, but the text is not endorsed by the IBO. The package is language rich and technology rich, comprising a textbook with an interactive CD. The combination of textbook and interactive Student CD will foster the mathematical development of students in a stimulating way. Frequent use of the interactive features on the CD is certain to nurture a much deeper understanding and appreciation of mathematical concepts. The CD displays the contents of the textbook with many interactive features such as simulations, computer demonstrations, video clips, graphing packages, spreadsheets etc to stimulate the interest of students and assist teachers. The book contains many problems, from basic to the advanced, to cater for a wide range of student abilities and interests. Some exercises are simply designed to build skills, but every effort has been made to contextualise problems to help students see the everyday uses and practical application of the mathematics they are studying, and appreciate the universality of mathematics.
