1.0 Introduction

This Basic Mathematics syllabus is a revised version which has been prepared to replace that of 1996 which has phased out. The revision process focused on change in paradigm from that of content based to competence based curriculum. Moreover, the revision was inevitable due to the fact that the 1996 syllabus did not sufficiently consider the current social, cultural, global, technological, subject biases and cross cutting issues taking place worldwide but particularly in Tanzanian Society.In addition, the revision has also taken into consideration on the requirements for the Secondary Education Development Plan (SEDP). This syllabus has been introduced for implementation from January 2005.

2.0 Aims and Objectives of Education in TanzaniaThe general aims and objectives of education in Tanzania are to:(a) Guide and promote the development and improvement of the personalities of the

citizens of Tanzania, their human resources and effective utilization of those resources in bringing about individual and national development.

(b) Promote the acquisition and appreciation of the culture, customs and traditions of the people of Tanzania.

(c) Promote the acquisition and appropriate use of literacy, social, scientific, vocational, technological, professional and other forms of knowledge, skills and attitudes for the development and improvement of the condition of man and society.

(d) Develop and promote self-confidence and an inquiring mind, and understanding and respect for human dignity and human rights and readiness to work hard for self-advancement and national development.

3.0 Aims and Objectives of Secondary Education in Tanzania

In Tanzania, secondary education refers to post primary formal education offered to the learners who successfully completed seven years of primary education and have met the requisite entry qualifications.

The aims and objectives of secondary education are to:(a) Consolidate and broaden the scope of baseline ideas, knowledge, skills and attitudes

acquired and developed at the primary educational level.(b) Enhance the development and appreciation of national unity, identity and ethic,

personal integrity, respect for human rights, cultural and moral values, customs, traditions and civic responsibilities and obligations.

(c) Promote the development of competency in linguistic ability and effective use of communication skills in Kiswahili and in at least one foreign language.

(d) Provide opportunities for the acquisition of knowledge, skills, attitudes and understanding in prescribed or selected fields of study.

(e) Prepare students for tertiary and higher education, vocational, technical and professional training.

(f) Inculcate a sense and ability for self-study, self-confidence and self-advancement in new frontiers of science and technology, academic and occupational knowledge and skills.

(g) Prepare the student to join the world of work.

4.0 General Competences

By the end of the four years course, the student should have the ability to:(a) Think critically and logically in interpreting and solving problems.(b) Use mathematical languages in explaining and clarifying mathematical ideas.(c) Apply mathematical knowledge and techniques in other fields.

5.0 General Objectives

By the end of the four years course, the student should be able to:(a) Promote the development and application of mathematical skills in solving practical

problems in daily life.(b) Apply mathematical concepts in interpreting situations at local and global levels.(c) Develop a foundation of mathematical knowledge, techniques and life skills for

6.0 Structure and Organization of the SyllabusThis Basic Mathematics syllabus has a slightly different structure compared to that of 1997. The following items were added for improvement: (a) General competences for the whole course.(b) Competences for each class, i.e Form One to Form Four. (c) Suggested areas for assessment.(d) Number of periods per sub-topic.(e) Column for sub-topics.

The structure of the syllabus is as follows:6.1 Class Level CompetencesCompetences are skills, knowledge and attitudes attained by the learners after the learning process. Competences have been stated for each class/level of Basic Mathematics course. The class level objectives are derived from the class level competences.

6.2 Class Level ObjectivesFor each competence intended to be achieved, one or more objectives haves been stated in order to achieve it. The general objectives for Form One to Form Four are stated in general terms to indicate the scope of content to be covered within each level. 6.3 TopicsThe topics have been derived from the class level competences and objectives. Some topics in the 1997 Basic Mathematics syllabus have been retained. Also some content from Cross-Cutting Issues (CCI), and the phased out bias subjects have been integrated. Topics have been arranged to attain a logical order starting from the simple to the most difficult ones. Both block and spiral arrangements of topics have been adopted.

6.4 Sub-TopicTopics have been divided into sub-topics. The subtopics have been arranged to attain a logical order.

6.5 Specific ObjectivesEach sub-topic has one or more specific objectives. These specific objectives are the expected outcomes in classroom instruction. They also reflect the process to attain competences within the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains.

6.6 Teaching and Learning StrategiesThe Column of teaching and learning strategies indicates what the teacher and students are expected to be doing in the process of teaching and learning. Students are encouraged to work in small groups for maximum participatory and cooperative learning. The teacher shall assume the role of a facilitator to promote, guide and help students learning activities. The whole teaching and learning process should be a participatory and interactive, where

Page 7: Syllabus for Basic Mathematics O Level Form I-IV.pdf for Basic Mathematics O Level Form I-IV... · 1 the united republic of tanzania ministry of education and vocational training

vii

the students learns by doing a series of logical activities.These suggested teaching and learning (T/L) strategies are not exhaustive. The teacher and students may use other learner centered strategy which suit the T/L environment.

6.7 Teaching and Learning ResourcesIn the teaching of Basic Mathematics a great variety of teaching – learning resources will be needed in quality and quantity. In case the commercial varieties of T/L resources are not available, the teacher should work with students to collect or improvise alternative resources available in the environment.

6.8 AssessmentFor every specific instructional objective, there is/are some suggested question(s) or areas for assessment. Formative and summative assessments should be geared towards mastery of the competences and skills developed within the course

6.9 Number of PeriodsNumber of periods is an estimated time to be used to teach a given topic/sub- topic. Each period is 40 minutes. The numbers of periods have been taken into account the time needed to adequately cover the sub-topic. Some topics need more time than others depending on the nature and weight of the topic. The teacher is advised to make maximum use of time allocated in classroom instruction. Lost instructional time should always be compensated for.

2. Drive and apply the formulae for surfarce area and volume of geometrical figures3. Find the sum , difference and scalar multiplication of vectors and hence use the

knowledge to solve practical problems.4. Use 2 x 2 matrices to solve simultaneous equations and solve problems on

transformations.5. Calculate the probability of an even and perform simple combination of probabilities6. Draw graph of sine and cosine functions and apply sine and cosine rules to solve

problems.7. Use oblique projections to draw three dimensional figures and find the angle

between a line and a plane and the angle between two planes.
