This year, only 11 percent of high school students chose maturite from mathematics.
BRATISLAVA. For grammar school students, pupils of secondary industrial and selected secondary vocational schools, maths from mathematics should be mandatory.
Minister of Voice Tomáš Drucker For the first time, he introduced more specific plans how to introduce a mandatory exam in mathematics in secondary schools within five years.
Gymnázi students should choose whether they only need to undergo a lighter level of graduation from mathematics, because they will not need it at university, or whether they also take a more difficult form, because they are going to technical and mathematical fields.
The Minister claims that before introducing compulsory graduation from mathematics, they also want to change the way they are taught in secondary schools, as he is often learned today as a « set of rules and patterns », without understanding what students are for.
However, analyst Michal Rehúš from the Center of Educational Analyzes asks why the ministry wants to introduce compulsory pupils testing. Improve the teaching of mathematics in secondary schools so that pupils can be better prepared, according to him, can be done without a compulsory school -leaving exam.
The SME daily summarizes in basic issues and answers, which is known about compulsory maths from mathematics so far.
