Higher Secondary Mathematics Lab Manual, Guidelines, Model Question Paper
Advertisement
The syllabus for the Higher Secondary Mathematics has been revised by including practical. There would be practical periods every week along with practical exam in the end of the year like other Science subjects. Mathematics practical will become a reality from the academic year 2019-20 from first year(Plus One) classes.
It has been aimed to transact all subjects with the help of educational technology. KITE would make arrangements for excellent softwares for this and to impart training to all teachers. Scheme for Mathematics lab, model activities etc would be updated here as and when it is made available.

It has been recommended early by the Curriculum Sub Committee to install IT and Mathematics labs and to conduct practicals. The recommendations, approaching document prepared by the SCERT and an order recognized by the government have been published. It has been directed to allot two continuous periods each week for Maths practical. A minimum of 10 lab work should be conducted for Plus One and 14 lab work should be conducted for Plus Two students. The practical exam would be of 2 hours duration with questions for 40 marks. Accordingly, the valuation system that prevails now may change.
The order states that there is no need to install labs for Mathematics separately. Instead IT labs can be used. To make arrangements in lab in all schools, Hi-tech School project, Plan fund, self fund, people fund etc can be used. At present, other Science subjects have practical exam and lab activity is part of valuation.
The entire free softwares required for this like, Geogebra, Python, Libre office, Samagra Portal would be available free of cost by the Kerala Infrastructure and Technology for Education (KITE).
Separate markings are given for those steps which are to be written in the observation book.
Each student has to keep an observation book, which is to be examined and rectified by the teacher.
An online platform is also set ready for recording the findings and inferences of the student.
