            PURE MATHEMATICS
            A panel meeting was held in May 2019. The Panellists reviewed
            and refined all the General Objectives to ensure that they
            captured the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains.
            Specific Objectives, and the related Content were examined
            and adjusted where deemed necessary to ensure that the
            depth and scope were clear. Some Specific Objectives were
            reworded, rearranged in a logical teaching order, new ones
            written and a few deleted in the Modules.

            The suggested teaching and learning activities were reviewed
            for all modules to help teachers engage students in learning
            experiences  which would equip them with the relevant
            mathematical and technical competencies, transferable skills
            such as critical thinking, innovativeness, team work, problem-
            solving, communication, and other life skills while catering to
            the different learning styles. The suggested list of resources
            was also updated.

            Additional meetings will be held to refine the objectives,
            content, assessment and specimen paper in preparation for
            submission to the April 2019 meeting of SUBSEC.
