The course contains investigative and inquiry-based learning, supporting students in their internally assessed exploration task. There is some content that is common with the Mathematics SL Applications and Interpretations course but the Mathematics Analysis and Approaches SL has a greater emphasis on calculus, and theoretical approaches.

Activities and Assessment

Teacher and students have regular weekly opportunities to assess progress and attainment.  Some activities assess student achievement against formal criteria, such as worksheets, problem sets or quizzes.  Learning is also supported with discussion forums, email, and regular live lessons in the online classroom.
