ARM 10.54.4097. NEARING PROFICIENCY MATHEMATICS PERFORMANCE STANDARDS UPON GRADUATION

(1) A graduating student at the nearing proficiency level in mathematics demonstrates partial mastery of the prerequisite knowledge and skills fundamental for proficient-level mathematics. He/she: (a) applies incomplete and incorrect mathematical processes to solve problems, often inaccurately; (b) communicates mathematical ideas and sometimes extends them, but often inaccurately; (c) sometimes understands and uses appropriate technology to apply functions, graphs, and algebraic concepts to solve real and theoretical problems; (d) sometimes demonstrates difficulty recognizing complex measurement and geometric and algebraic relationships which result in inaccuracies; (e) sometimes makes predictions and decisions based on data, probability, and statistics, often inaccurately; and (f) makes connections, but does not generalize or prove them and often his/her arguments lack appropriate supporting mathematical ideas and careful reasoning.
