Overview

This highly illustrated coursebook and accompanying CD-ROM forms part of the completely new Mathematics for the IB Diploma series. It has been written by teachers to specifically cover the new IB Higher Level syllabus. The progressive approach encourages cumulative learning. The title ends with a chapter dedicated to combined exercises that require skills from many topics – a typical trick in the IB Examinations.

Features

  • Accompanying CD-ROM contains extension worksheets, prior knowledge, the Option topics, calculator skills sheets and fill-in proofs.
  • Worked examples show typical workings and thought processes.
  • Exercises are progressive and colour-coded according to IB examination grades. They include short-answer questions and longer-answer questions typical of the IB examinations.
  • Theory of Knowledge boxes highlight some of the weaknesses and ambiguities in mathematics as well as showing how mathematics links to other areas of knowledge.
  • Exam and Exam-style questions provide lots of exam practice.
