Answer:
The Syllabus in the subject of Mathematics has undergone changes from time to time in accordance
with growth of the subject and emerging needs of the society. The present revised syllabus has been
designed in accordance with National Curriculum Framework 2005 and as per guidelines given in the
Focus Group on Teaching of Mathematics which is to meet the emerging needs of all categories of
students. For motivating the teacher to relate the topics to real life problems and other subject
areas, greater emphasis has been laid on applications of various concepts.
The curriculum at Secondary stage primarily aims at enhancing the capacity of students to employ
Mathematics in solving day-to-day life problems and studying the subject as a separate discipline. It
is expected that students should acquire the ability to solve problems using algebraic methods and
apply the knowledge of simple trigonometry to solve problems of height and distances. Carrying out
experiments with numbers and forms of geometry, framing hypothesis and verifying these with
further observations form inherent part of Mathematics learning at this stage. The proposed
curriculum includes the study of number system, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, mensuration,
statistics, graphs and coordinate geometry, etc.
The teaching of Mathematics should be imparted through activities which may involve the use of
concrete materials, models, patterns, charts, pictures, posters, games, puzzles and experiments.
