    A CHECKLIST FOR WRITING YOUR DRAFT EXPLORATION

    Name: __________________________________

    Presentation & Mathematical Communication


    ⎕ Did you start with an introduction?

    ⎕ Do you have a clearly written aim and rationale?

    ⎕ Does the entire paper focus on the aim and avoiding irrelevance? Don’t go off on a tangent.

    ⎕ Does the writing flow nicely?

    ⎕ Is your exploration coherent? (Def’n: logically organized, understandable, having clarity)

    ⎕ Did you include graphs, tables and diagrams at appropriate places and not attach them all at the end?

    ⎕ Have you had someone (not a student in Math SL) edit your paper?

    ⎕ Did you cite all references in your bibliography and acknowledge direct quotes appropriately?
    (APA citations & APA footnotes)

    ⎕ Did you use appropriate mathematical language and representation? (No computer notation *, ^, etc)

    ⎕ Did you define key terms where necessary?

    ⎕ Did you define variables?

    ⎕ Did you use appropriate technology?

    ⎕ Did you think about the degree of accuracy? (For your topic, how many decimal places are relevant?)

    ⎕ Did you end with a conclusion and relate it back to your aim and rationale?

    ⎕ Do you have page numbers?

    ⎕ Did you write in 12pt?

    ⎕ Do you have 12 to 20 pages with double line spacing, including diagrams and graphs, but excluding the
    bibliography?

    ⎕ Did you include the following on your cover page?


    • IB Logo
    • Title of the exploration
    • Due Date
    • IB Personal Code
    • Number of pages
    ⎕ Before submitting your IA file, please name it in the following form: “Lastname_Firstname_MathIA”
    Page 1 of 2
    Reflection
    ⎕ Did you ask questions, make conjectures and investigate mathematical ideas?

    ⎕ Did you consider the historical and global perspectives of your topic?

    ⎕ Did you discuss the implications of your results? (What do they mean? Why are they important?...)

    ⎕ Did you consider the significance of your paper?

    ⎕ Did you look for possible limitations and/or extensions of your topic?

    ⎕ Did you make links between your topic and different fields and/or areas of mathematics?

    Personal Engagement
    ⎕ Did you ask and answer personal questions (“I wonder if…, What if…”)?

    ⎕ Did you try to think independently and creatively?

    ⎕ Did you address why you think your topic is interesting or why it appealed to you?

    ⎕ Did you present mathematical ideas in your own way (as opposed to copy someone else’ theory)?

    ⎕ Did you try to add “your voice” to the work?

    ⎕ Did you relate the results to your own life?

    Use of Mathematics
    ⎕ Level of math used consistent with level of SL Math course?

    ⎕ Knowledge and understanding of mathematics demonstrated?

    ⎕ Did you explore unfamiliar math, or apply familiar math to a new situation?

    ⎕ Did you create mathematical models for real-world situations, if this applied to your topic?

    ⎕ Did you apply problem-solving techniques?

    ⎕ Did you look for and explain patterns, if this applied to your topic?

    ⎕ Was a solution found to the problem posed?

    ⎕ Was the solution “written” in real world terms?
