This document discusses mathematics education in the Primary Years Programme (PYP). It covers the PYP philosophy of mathematics, how children learn mathematics through constructing meaning, and the written, taught, and assessed curriculums. The PYP views mathematics as a tool for problem solving and sees it as intrinsically fascinating. Children should see themselves as mathematicians and construct their own understanding starting from personal experiences. Mathematics is best taught through relevant, real-life contexts. Assessment includes diagnostic, formative, and summative strategies to provide feedback during and after the learning process. Standardized tests are just one part of assessment and not meant to be taught to directly.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

• How children learn mathematics
• The written curriculum
• The taught curriculum
• The assessed curriculum
Primary Parent Workshop
5. The power of mathematics for describing and
analysing the world around us is such that it has
become a highly effective tool for solving
problems. It is also recognized that students can
appreciate the intrinsic fascination of
mathematics and explore the world through its
unique perceptions.
Learning Mathematics – The PYP Philosophy
6. In the same way that students describe
themselves as “authors” or “artists”, a school’s
programme should also provide students with
the opportunity to see themselves as
“mathematicians”, where they enjoy and are
enthusiastic when exploring and learning about
mathematics.
Learning Mathematics – The PYP Philosophy
7. It is important that learners acquire
mathematical understanding by constructing
their own meaning through ever-increasing
levels of abstraction, starting with exploring
their own personal experiences, understandings
and knowledge.
How children learn mathematics
8. Additionally, it is fundamental to the philosophy
of the PYP that, since it is to be used in real-life
situations, mathematics needs to be taught in
relevant, realistic contexts, rather than by
attempting to impart a fixed body of knowledge
directly to students. How children learn
mathematics can be described using the
following stages (see figure 1).
How children learn mathematics
17. Learning Outcome: Understand what each digit represents in two and three digit numbers; partition
into hundreds, tens and ones.
18. Learning Outcome: Find halves, quarters, thirds, fifths, eighths and tenths of shapes and numbers.
19. Learning Outcome: Find halves, quarters, thirds, fifths, eighths and tenths of shapes and numbers.
20. Learning Outcome: Find halves, quarters, thirds, fifths, eighths and tenths of shapes and numbers.
21. Learning Outcome: Measure angles; describe and estimate the size of angles and classify them as
acute, right or obtuse
22. Learning Outcome: Measure angles; describe and estimate the size of angles and classify them as
acute, right or obtuse
23. Learning Outcome: Identify relationships between numbers and make generalized statements using
words, symbols and letters, e.g. the second number is twice the first number plus 5 (n, 2n +5)
37. Learning Outcome: Compare lengths and weights by direct comparison, then by using uniform non-
standard units. Use comparative language, e.g. longer, shorter, heavier and lighter.
39. Diagnostic
Diagnostic assessment can help identify
students’ current knowledge of a subject, their
skill sets and capabilities, and to clarify
misconceptions before teaching takes place
Knowing students’ strengths and weaknesses
can helps teachers better plan what to teach and
how to teach it.
Assessment
40. Formative
Formative assessment provides feedback and
information during the instructional process,
while learning is taking place, and while learning
is occurring.
Assessment
41. Summative
Summative assessment takes place after the
learning has been completed and provides
information and feedback that sums up the
teaching and learning process. Typically, no
more formal learning is taking place at this
stage, other than incidental learning which
might take place through the completion of
projects and assignments.
Assessment
43. ‘Testing is a small part of assessment. It needs to
be part of the picture. A good test has a role to
play. The language that we like to use is, it's an
audit. It's a snapshot. You don't run your
business for the audit. You want more than a
snapshot, you want a whole family album. But
the audit and the snapshot have a place in the
larger picture.’
Grant Wiggins - Defining Assessment
Distinction between ‘testing’ and ‘assessment’
44. • Standardised testing is one small part of a
comprehensive process of assessment
• We use standardised tests with the
understanding that they are simplistic and
generic but they also provide quick and easy
way to measure basic skills in core subjects
• Teachers do not ‘teach to the test’
Assessment at KICS
45. • For tracking student progress over time
• To highlight strengths and weaknesses in
curricular provision
• As a performance indicator of teaching and
learning – class, year group or school
• To compare cohorts of students (EAL, gender,
nationality etc.)
• To provide an external benchmark for the
purposes of quality assurance
How test data is used
46. • Provide standardised score and percentile
ranking
• Completed at beginning and end of year
• Results are automatically delivered as soon as
tests are complete
• Instant detailed diagnostic reports
