Classroom-Based Assessment Concepts

The video tutorial discusses the process of completing a Classroom-Based Assessment (CBA) in second-year mathematics. It covers defining a problem statement, translating problems into mathematical terms, engaging with mathematics to solve problems, and reporting findings. The tutorial also provides examples of past projects, outlines the marking criteria, and offers guidance on structuring and submitting the project.

What is a CBA in the context of this video?

• A collaborative business activity

• A computer-based application

• A type of standardized test

• A classroom-based assessment

Which of the following is an example of a past CBA project?

• Organizing a school trip

• Redeveloping school flower beds

• Developing a mobile app

• Designing a new school uniform

What is the first step in the mathematical investigation process?

• Analyzing results

• Collecting data

• Presenting findings

• Defining the problem statement

Which of the following is NOT a suggested project idea?

• Should Toyota make an A90 electrical model?

• How much would it cost to care for a dog for a year?

• What is the best way to organize a school event?

• Which breed of dairy cow has the most milk solids?

What is the purpose of translating the problem into mathematics?

• To use different mathematical methods

• To simplify the problem

• To avoid using mathematics

• To make the problem more complex

Which mathematical method is considered operational mathematics?

• Geometry

• Addition and subtraction

• Algebra

• Statistics

What is the final step in the mathematical investigation process?

• Defining the problem

• Engaging with mathematics

• Reporting on findings

• Translating the problem

What are the four marking criteria for the CBA?

• Fail, pass, merit, distinction

• Yet to meet expectations, in line with expectations, above expectations, exceptional

• Not satisfactory, satisfactory, good, excellent

• Below average, average, above average, excellent

What should be included in the introduction of the project report?

• A list of references

• A detailed budget

• The problem statement and reason for choosing the project

• A summary of findings

What is recommended for the presentation of tables, graphs, and charts?

• They should be typed using software

• They should be handwritten and photographed

• They should be drawn using a ruler

• They should be omitted from the report
