Integrated MathematicsMathematics promotes intellectual development, is utilitarian and applicable to all disciplines.Additionally, its aesthetics and epistemological approaches provide solutions fit for any purpose.Therefore, Mathematics is the essential tool to empower people with the knowledge, competenciesand attitudes which are precursors for this dynamic world.This course is designed for all students pursuing CXC associate degree programme, with specialemphasis to those who do not benefit from the existing intermediate courses that cater primarilyfor mathematics career options. It will provide these students with the knowledge and skills setsrequired to model practical situations and provide workable solutions in their respective field ofstudy. These skills include critical and creative thinking, problem solving, logical reasoning,modelling ability, team work, decision making, research techniques, information communicationand technological competencies for life-long learning. Such holistic development becomes usefulfor the transition into industry as well as research and further studies required at tertiary levels.Moreover, the attitude and discipline which accompany the study of Mathematics also nurturedesirable character qualities.The Integrated Mathematics Syllabus comprises three Modules:Module 1-Foundations of MathematicsModule 2-StatisticsModule 3-Calculus

IntroductionThe Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) is designed to provide certification of theacademic, vocational and technical achievement of students in the Caribbean who, havingcompleted a minimum of five years of secondary education, wish to further their studies. Theexaminations address the skills and knowledge acquired by students under a flexible and articulatedsystem where subjects are organised in 1-Unit or 2-Unit courses with each Unit containing threeModules. Subjects examined under CAPE may be studied concurrently or singly.The Caribbean Examinations Council offers three types of certification at the CAPE level. The first isthe award of a certificate showing each CAPE Unit completed. The second is the CAPE Diploma,awarded to candidates who have satisfactorily completed at least six Units, including CaribbeanStudies. The third is the CXC Associate Degree, awarded for the satisfactory completion of a prescribedcluster of eight CAPE Units including Caribbean Studies, Communication Studies and IntegratedMathematics. Integrated Mathematics is not a requirement for the CXC Associate Degree inMathematics. The complete list of Associate Degrees may be found in the CXC Associate DegreeHandbook.For the CAPE Diploma and the CXC Associate Degree, candidates must complete the cluster of requiredUnits within a maximum period of five years. To be eligible for a CXC Associate Degree, the educationalinstitution presenting the candidates for the award, must select the Associate Degree of choice at thetime of registration at the sitting (year) the candidates are expected to qualify for the award.Candidates will not be awarded an Associate Degree for which they were not registered.iCXC A35/U1/15

Integrated Mathematics Syllabus RATIONALEThe Caribbean society is an integral part of an ever-changing world. The impact of globalisation on mostsocieties encourages this diverse Caribbean region to revisit the education and career opportunities of ourcurrent and future citizens. A common denominator is for Caribbean societies to create among its citizensa plethora of quality leadership with the acumen required to make meaningful projections and innovationsfor further development. Further, learning appropriate problem-solving techniques, inherent to the studyof mathematics, is vital for such leaders. Mathematics promotes intellectual development, is utilitarianand applicable to all disciplines. Additionally, its aesthetics and epistemological approaches providesolutions fit for any purpose. Therefore, Mathematics is the essential tool to empower people with theknowledge, competencies and attitudes which are required for academia as well as quality leadership forsustainability in this dynamic world.The Integrated Mathematics course of study will provide students with the knowledge and skills setsrequired to model practical situations and provide workable solutions in their respective field of study.These skills include critical and creative thinking, problem solving, logical reasoning, modelling ability,team work, decision making, research techniques, information communication and technologicalcompetencies for life-long learning. Such holistic development becomes useful for the transition intoindustry research and further studies required at tertiary levels. Moreover, the attitude and disciplinewhich accompany the study of Mathematics also nurture desirable character qualities.This syllabus will contribute to the development of the Ideal Caribbean Person as articulated by theCARICOM Heads of Government in the following areas: “demonstrate multiple literacies, independent andcritical thinking and innovative application of science and technology to problem solving. Such a personshould also demonstrate a positive work attitude and value and display creative imagination andentrepreneurship”. In keeping with the UNESCO Pillars of Learning, on completion of this course ofstudy, students will learn to do, learn to be and learn to transform oneself and society. AIMSThis syllabus aims to:1.improve on the mathematical knowledge, skills and techniques with an emphasis on accuracy;2.empower students with the knowledge, competencies and attitudes which are precursors foracademia as well as quality leadership for sustainability in the dynamic world;3.provide students with the proficiencies required to model practical situations and provideworkable solutions in their respective fields of work and study;CXC A35/U1/151

4.develop competencies in critical and creative thinking, problem solving, logical reasoning,modelling, team work, decision making, research techniques and information communication andtechnology for life-long learning;5.nurture desirable character qualities that include self-confidence, self-esteem, ethics andemotional security;6.make Mathematics interesting, recognisable and relevant to the students locally, regionally andglobally. SKILLS AND ABILITIES TO BE ASSESSEDThe skills and abilities that students are expected to develop on completion of this syllabus have beengroup under three headings:(a)Conceptual Knowledge;(b)Algorithmic Knowledge; and,(c)Reasoning.Conceptual KnowledgeThe examination will test candidates’ ability to recall, select and use appropriate facts, concepts andprinciples in a variety of contexts.Algorithmic KnowledgeThe examination will test candidates’ ability to manipulate mathematical expressions and proceduresusing appropriate symbols and language, logical deduction and inferences.ReasoningThe examination will test candidates’ ability to select appropriate strategy or select, use and evaluatemathematical models and interpret the results of a mathematical solution in terms of a given realworld problem and engage in problem-solving. PREREQUISITES OF THE SYLLABUSAny person with a good grasp of the contents of the syllabus of the Caribbean Secondary EducationCertificate (CSEC) General Proficiency course in Mathematics, or equivalent, should be able toundertake the course. However, successful participation in the course will also depend on thepossession of good verbal and written communication skills.CXC A35/U1/152

STRUCTURE OF THE SYLLABUSThe Integrated Mathematics Syllabus comprises three Modules, each requiring at least 50 hours. Studentswill develop the skills and abilities identified through the study of:Module 1-FOUNDATIONS OF MATHEMATICSModule 2-STATISTICSModule 3-CALCULUSCXC A35/U1/153
