[2.0] Principles of Mathematics | G9 | MPM1D

Course Description

This course enables students to develop an understanding of mathematical concepts related to algebra, analytic geometry, and measurement and geometry through investigation, the effective use of technology, and abstract reasoning. Students will investigate relationships, which they will then generalize as equations of lines, and will determine the connections between different representations of a linear relation. They will also explore relationships that emerge from the measurement of three‐dimensional figures and two‐dimensional shapes. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi‐step problems.

Course Completion Time

As per Ontario Ministry of Education guidelines, Maple Leaf School has a mandatory minimum requirement of 14 days enrolment for students to be eligible for a midterm report card and 28 days enrolment to be eligible for a final report card.

Students can complete an online high school credit courses as quickly as 4 weeks, or take as long as 12 months.

Assessment & Evaluation Strategies

Diagnostic assessment is used at the beginning of a unit to assist in determining a starting point for instruction. Assessments for Learning and as Learning (AFL & AAL) provide information to students as they are learning and refining their skills. Assessment of Learning (AOL), at the end of units and course, provides students with the opportunity to synthesize/apply/demonstrate their learning and the achievement of the expectations. The course also provides the students with a variety of ways to demonstrate their knowledge through the so-called Triangulation Assessments, which may assess students through Observation and/or Conversation (i.e. Oral Presentations or Student Interviews), as well as Student Products. The AOLs are posted at the end of each unit.

Levels

There are four levels of achievement for students who are passing the course:

Level 1 (50-59%)
Level 2 (60-69%)
Level 3 (70-79%)
Level 4 (80-100%)

Level 3 is the provincial standard for student achievement.

Final Grade

70% of the grade will be based on evaluation conducted throughout the course. Final evaluation will take into account the student’s most recent and most consistent performance.

30% of the grade will be based on a final evaluation consisting of the final examination and the independent study unit, which will take into account the entire course, including the student’s most recent and most consistent performance.

The evaluation for this course is based on the student’s achievement of curriculum expectations and the demonstrated skills required for effective learning. The final percentage grade represents the quality of the student’s overall achievement of the expectations for the course and reflects the corresponding level of achievement as described in the achievement chart for the discipline.

Grade Delivery

We can delivery the marks for your online courses directly to OUAC, OCAS, your home, and/or to your day school.

Resources Required by Students

A scanner, smart phone camera, or similar device to upload handwritten or hand-drawn work.
A front-facing camera on a desktop, laptop, or mobile device to allow for proctoring over the internet.
Internet access and a modern standards-compliant web browser.
A non-programmable, non-graphing, scientific calculator. (mathematics and science courses only)

Proctoring

The tests are typically a paper-pen evaluation written at a mutually agreed time, date, and location. The tests will be proctored, meaning a suitable adult with a dedicated identifiable and authentic email address will supervise you writing the tests. This process ensures the security and integrity of the test. Any person related or affiliated to the student in a personal way cannot serve as a test supervisor.
