RV Gold

Differentiation

First Principles

Explores differentiation from first principles, examining how a limit can be applied to determine the gradient of a function.

RV Gold

Differentiating Functions

Explores the differentiation of logarithmic, exponential & power functions, and trigonometric & inverse trigonometric functions. Methods examined include the chain, product, and quotient rules.

RV Gold

Optimization

Explores optimization. Typical applications include maximizing volumes or profits and minimizing areas or costs.

RV Gold

Related Rates and Implicit Differentiation

Explores related rates and implicit differentiation, which involve similar techniques of multiplying derivatives to obtain novel expressions or solutions.

RV Gold

Limits and L’Hôpital’s Rule

Explores the use of L’Hôpital’s rule to determine the limits of functions at points where the function takes on an indeterminate form.

Frequently Asked Questions

IB Mathematics Analysis and Approaches (AA) Higher Level (HL) is one of the four math courses introduced in the current IB Mathematics curriculum (2021-2027). The AA HL course is a traditional mathematics course, whereby students develop a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and solve both real and theoretical problems, with and without technology. The Analysis and Approaches HL course should be considered by students who are strong at mathematics, and are interested in pursuing courses and pathways involving mathematics after their IB Diploma Program (economics, sciences, etc.)

The IB Mathematics Analysis and Approaches HL course consists of four assessment items that contribute to a students overall score for the course. There are three exam papers, combined to be worth 80%. Paper 1 (non-calculator) and Paper 2 (calculator) both consist of short and long response questions. Paper 3 consists of 2 long response problem solving questions (calculator). The fourth assessment item, worth the remaining 20% of the marks, is a ‘Mathematical Exploration’, where students complete a written assignment involving the investigation of an area of mathematics that interests them.

There are two phases students progress through in their two-year IB Math AA HL course: the learning phase and the revision phase. The learning phase occurs in class, with their teacher and textbooks, where students first encounter and explore the mathematical concepts and consolidate their understanding by solving questions specific to that concept. The revision phase, which is what Revision Village is specifically designed for, is when students consolidate their understanding of all of the concepts in the AA HL course and appreciate how the concepts are connected. In the revision phase, the most effective strategy is to practice lots of IB Math AA HL exam questions, to build confidence, reach mastery, and be prepared for the AA HL examinations.

Revision Village is specifically designed to support IB students in the revision phase of their IB Mathematics Analysis and Approaches Higher Level course. Revision Village has four main sections, each for different revision purposes: 1) Questionbank: a large library of IB Math AA HL exam questions categorised by topic and ordered by difficulty, 2) Practice Exams: a carefully designed set of quizzes and mock papers for students to use in their final phase of revision, 3) Past Paper Video Solutions: step-by-step video tutorials of past AA HL exam questions, taught by experienced IB Teachers, and 4) Key Concepts: short concise videos that recap the important theory in the AA HL course. Revision Village is the perfect place for IB Students to learn, practice and prepare for their IB Mathematics exam stress-free, with all of the resources they need in one place.
