This document outlines the mathematics learning outcomes for grade 6. It covers 6 strands: number, pattern and function, data handling, shape and space, and measurement. For each strand, it describes the conceptual understanding, how meaning is constructed, transferred into symbols, and applied with understanding. Key areas covered include place value, fractions, ratios, patterns, exponents, data displays, probability, geometric shapes, scale, measurement, and unit conversions. The goal is for students to make sense of mathematical ideas and demonstrate their understanding through problem-solving and real-world applications.

Assessment of learning and Educational Technology Jofamaeluceno
Learning assessments gather information on what learners know and what they can do with what they have learnt, as well as offer critical information on the process and context that enable learning, and on those that may be hindering learning progress.

COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICS Standards for JeniceStuckeyoo
COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICS
Standards for Mathematical Practice
The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of expertise that mathematics educators at all levels should
seek to develop in their students. These practices rest on important “processes and proficiencies” with longstanding
importance in mathematics education. The first of these are the NCTM process standards of problem solving,
reasoning and proof, communication, representation, and connections. The second are the strands of mathematical
proficiency specified in the National Research Council’s report Adding It Up: adaptive reasoning , strategic
competence, conceptual understanding (comprehension of mathematical concepts, operations and relations),
procedural fluency (skill in carrying out procedures flexibly, accurately, efficiently and appropriately) and productive
disposition (habitual inclination to see mathematics as sensible, useful, and worthwhile, coupled with a belief in
diligence and one’s own efficacy).
1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Mathematically proficient students:
• explain to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution.
• analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals.
• make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution attempt.
• consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem.
• monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary.
• transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get information.
• explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs.
• draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends.
• use concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem.
• check their answers to problems using a different method.
• ask themselves, “Does this make sense?”
• understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Mathematically proficient students:
• make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations.
ü decontextualize (abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing
symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents and
ü contextualize (pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the
symbols involved).
• use quantitative reasoning that entails creating a coherent representation of quantities, not just how to compute
them
• know and flexibly use different properties of operations and objects.
3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
Mathematically proficient students:
• understand and use stated assumptions, definitions, and previously established results in constru ...
The workshop will provide middle level mathematics teachers with ideas for engaging students in the understanding of math concepts and the creative aspects of mathematics topics in the 6-8 curriculum. The workshop will be hands-on and based upon a constructivist approach to learning and teaching. Handouts will be provided.
Presenter(s): Shirley Disseler
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

6. Constructing meaning about mathematics
Learners construct meaning based on their previous experiences and understanding, and
by reflecting upon their interactions with objects and ideas. Therefore, involving learners in
an active learning process, where they are provided with possibilities to interact with
manipulatives and to engage in conversations with others, is paramount to this stage of
learning mathematics. When making sense of new ideas all learners either interpret these
ideas to conform to their present understanding or they generate a new understanding that
accounts for what they perceive to be occurring. This construct will continue to evolve as
learners experience new situations and ideas, have an opportunity to reflect on their
understandings and make connections about their learning.
Transferring meaning into symbols
Only when learners have constructed their ideas about a mathematical concept should they
attempt to transfer this understanding into symbols. Symbolic notation can take the form
of pictures, diagrams, modelling with concrete objects and mathematical notation.
Learners should be given the opportunity to describe their understanding using their own
method of symbolic notation, then learning to transfer them into conventional
mathematical notation.
Applying with understanding
Applying with understanding can be viewed as the learners demonstrating and acting on
their understanding. Through authentic activities, learners should independently select and
use appropriate symbolic notation to process and record their thinking. These authentic
activities should include a range of practical hands-on problem-solving activities and
realistic situations that provide the opportunity to demonstrate mathematical thinking
through presented or recorded formats. In this way, learners are able to apply their
understanding of mathematical concepts as well as utilize mathematical skills and
knowledge. As they work through these stages of learning, students and teachers use
certain processes of mathematical reasoning.
• They use patterns and relationships to analyze the problem situations upon which
they are working.
• They make and evaluate their own and each other’s ideas.
• They use models, facts, properties and relationships to explain their thinking.
• They justify their answers and the processes by which they arrive at solutions.
In this way, students validate the meaning they construct from their experiences
with mathematical situations. By explaining their ideas, theories and results, both
orally and in writing, they invite constructive feedback and also lay out alternative
models of thinking for the class. Consequently, all benefit from this interactive
process.
