Mathematics I HL (IB) 11 1
Prerequisite: Algebra II (International Scholars)
Recommended: Precalculus (International
Scholars)
This course will prepare International
Baccalaureate candidates to demonstrate
mathematical skills, conceptual understanding, and
to apply mathematical methods of clear reasoning
and thought to problems in many different areas of
mathematics. Students will use analytical and
evaluative skills to develop portfolio items in
calculus, probability and statistics, and abstract
algebra. Preparation for external moderation is
integral to the course. Students should anticipate a
collegiate pace and performance level as the
course prepares students for additional
mathematics studies at the university level as
needed for related subjects such as physics,
engineering, and technology.
