16 ADVANCED EXTENSION AWARD IN MATHEMATICS GUIDANCE FOR CENTRES INTRODUCTION Advanced Extension Awards (AEAs) are being introduced for 8 year olds in England, Wales and Northern Ireland in the summer of 00 in a range of subjects. This Guidance is designed to provide information about the AEA in Mathematics to those who teach and advise Advanced level students. It incorporates much of what is included in the Guidance for Students. The Guidance should be read in conjunction with the specimen examination paper and mark scheme for Mathematics. Together, these documents will help teachers to guide students in their preparation for the examination. The Guidance explains and amplifies key points in the specification and the examination paper. WHAT ARE ADVANCED EXTENSION AWARDS? AEAs are qualifications intended to challenge the most able GCE Advanced level (A level) students. They are designed to provide opportunities for candidates to demonstrate a greater depth of understanding than that required at A level and to demonstrate the ability to think critically and creatively. Consequently, AEAs will help to differentiate between the most able candidates, particularly in subjects with a high proportion of A grades at A level. AEAs are based on A level subject criteria rather than individual specifications. They are intended to be accessible to all candidates who are expected to achieve a grade A in the A level for a particular subject, irrespective of where they have studied or which A level specification (syllabus) they have followed. They will not require any additional teaching or resources. It is intended that significantly more students should have the opportunity to take AEAs than take existing Special Papers but it is acceptable for centres to enter as many or as few candidates as they wish. The requirements for the AEA in Mathematics are set out in the test specification drawn up by the regulatory authorities (QCA, ACCAC and CCEA). It has been agreed that there will be only one AEA examination for each subject. The examination for the AEA in Mathematics is administered by Edexcel but will be available to candidates in all centres. Representatives from each of the awarding bodies (AQA, CCEA, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC) will be involved in the process of setting examination papers and standards for the AEA in Mathematics. 6

17 THE STRUCTURE OF THE AEA EXAMINATION IN MATHEMATICS There will be a single three-hour written examination. It will consist of about seven questions. Questions may be multi-step with confidence building parts or unstructured. Some may be of an unusual nature that might include topics from GCSE and logic based items. Questions may be open-ended. Seven percent of the marks will be assigned for style and clarity of mathematical presentation. The examiners will seek to reward elegance of solution, insight in reaching a solution, rigour in developing a mathematical argument and excellent use of notation. Use of resources The use of scientific or graphical calculators will NOT be allowed nor will computer algebra systems. Candidates will be required to remember the same formulae as for GCE Advanced level Mathematics. They will also be expected to be familiar with the Mathematical Notation agreed for GCE Advanced level Mathematics. 7

18 HOW WILL CANDIDATES BE GRADED? Assessment materials and mark schemes will lead to awards on a two-point scale: Distinction and Merit, with Distinction being the higher. Candidates who do not reach the minimum standard for Merit will be recorded as ungraded. Performance level descriptors have been developed (see below) to indicate the level of attainment that is characteristic of Distinction and Merit. They give a general indication of the required learning outcomes at each level. The grade awarded will depend in practice upon the extent to which the candidate has met the assessment objective overall. Shortcomings in some aspects of the examination may be balanced by better performances in others. Candidates who achieve Distinction will demonstrate understanding and command of most of the topics tested. Candidates who achieve a Merit will demonstrate understanding and command of many of the topics tested. Candidates: G handle complex mathematical expressions accurately; G exhibit insight and clarity of thought; G adopt effective and imaginative mathematical strategies to produce logically coherent and elegant solutions to problems; G set out formal proofs, generalise and pick out special cases; G detect and correct faulty logic; G cope with unfamiliar and unstructured questions. 8
