What is MYP Math 8
In the International Baccalaureate® (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP), mathematics promotes both inquiry and application, helping students to develop problem solving techniques that transcend the discipline and that are useful in the world beyond school.
The MYP mathematics framework encompasses number, algebra, geometry and trigonometry, statistics and probability.
Students in the MYP learn how to represent information, to explore and model situations, and to find solutions to familiar and unfamiliar problems. These are skills that are useful in a wide range of arenas, including social sciences and the arts.
What is the significance of mathematics in the MYP?
MYP mathematics aims to equip all students with the knowledge, understanding and intellectual capabilities to address further courses in mathematics, as well as to prepare those students who will use mathematics in their studies, workplaces and everyday life.
Mathematics provides an important foundation for the study of sciences, engineering and technology, as well as a variety of application in other fields.
