Internal Assessment Standards in Mathematics

When a teacher purchases a sim for the class, each student receives two sims – a teaching sim and an assessment sim.  Each one has a student mode that the student uses and a teacher mode that provides the teacher with the information that they need to manage the class.

  1. The teaching sim: This comes with an unlimited randomised question pool that students can practice in the lab or at home. There is also video help for each question and some theory pages (where appropriate).
  2. The assessment sim: This is the auto-marked, QAAM’ed assessment itself.

For information on methods to use our sims, please visit the “Best Practice” page for our recommendations.

This video gives you an idea of what it does and how it works (2 minutes),  based on our sim for maths 1.4 assessment
