Extending students...

As discussed last week, competitions such as the Maths Talent Quest can be a fantastic way to extend students and allow them to explore their passion from a mathematical perspective.

But how are these entries assessed???

 

Maths Talent Quest entries are judged using a rubric.

Click here: MAV MTQ Judging Rubric

 

The rubric outlines the criteria used across four areas:

• Communication
• Understanding
• Ideas & Resources
• Presentation

Even if you are not able to enter a MTQ competition - the rubric is a great place to start if you are considering evaluation of a maths investigation.

 

There are many other resources available through the Mathematical Association of Victoria and the Maths Talent Quest websites.

 

Best wishes with any maths investigation projects you are undertaking!

 

Assessment is ongoing

Assessment is ongoing and these packs will help you to keep track of what each of your students know. 

For our Aussie followers these packs are for you. 

This will assist to see who needs tasks in certain areas and provide proof for reporting and talking to parents. 

Our store iSURF Maths has these packs or bundles to help you - if you have students performing outside the age appropriate year level, the bundles are for you.
