| dc.description.abstract | Three innovative features of the CXC mathematics examinations are discussed: 1) increased information on candidates' performance--the certificate awarded shows profile grades for ability in computation, comprehension, and reasoning as well as the overall grade; 2) breadth of consultation and concern with social needs in the development of the syllabus; and 3) conception and implementation of the syllabus as a curriculum--the curriculum is presented in the manner of a curriculum guide in a deliberate attempt to influence the teaching of the subject. Examples from the syllabus and examination are appended | |
