Florida Standards Assessment-
Mathematics
Under FCAT 2.0 Mathematics assessment, students are tested only on the content standards. On the Mathematics FSA, students will be assessed on the content standards AND mathematical practices through multiple choice questions, evidence-based written responses and performance tasks.
There will be more of an emphasis on going deeper than to just define function. Students need to explore what/why it is AND what/why it is not.
The mathematical practices create habits of mind and requires students to think like a mathematician with their understanding, fluency and precision, justification/application, and use of using technology.
