Title:
Should all students be taught complex mathematics?
Author:
OECD
Summary:
Exposure to complex mathematics concepts and tasks is related to higher performance in PISA among all students, including socio-economically disadvantaged students. • Working on complex problems without individualised support can increase mathematics anxiety among weaker students. • In most PISA-participating countries and economies, at least one in two students attends schools where teachers believe that it is best to adapt academic standards to the students’ needs. • Teaching strategies that support struggling students in mixed classes, such as giving students extra help when they need it, are related to students having more confidence in their mathematics ability.
