計算機規定

A graphic display calculator (GDC) from the IB-approved list is required for most Mathematics and Sciences papers and must be set to examination mode. Note that some papers do not permit a calculator (for example Mathematics Paper 1 and the multiple-choice Sciences Paper 1).

  • AO1: Know and understand relevant facts, concepts, and terminology (35%)
  • AO2: Apply and use computer science concepts, theories, and techniques (40%)
  • AO3: Evaluate, design, and construct computer systems, designs, and algorithms (25%)

根據歷屆試題與評分準則整理(2023–2025)。

計算機程式

Graph: zeros, intersections & turning points

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

用途: Plot a function to read its roots (zeros), points of intersection, and maxima/minima.

使用時機: Checking solutions, sketching, or solving where an analytic method is hard.

步驟
Graph the function(s) and use the built-in zero, intersect and maximum/minimum tools.

考試提示: Use a GDC from the IB-approved list in examination mode. Some papers do not permit a calculator. Always show your reasoning.

Numerical equation solver

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

用途: Solve an equation or find a variable numerically when an algebraic route is long or implicit.

使用時機: Iterative or implicit equations, or to confirm an algebraic solution.

步驟
Use the equation/zero solver, entering the equation and a sensible starting estimate.

考試提示: Use a GDC from the IB-approved list in examination mode. Some papers do not permit a calculator. Always show your reasoning.

Numerical integration & differentiation

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

用途: Evaluate a definite integral \(\int_a^b f(x)\,dx\) or a gradient \(f'(x)\) at a point.

使用時機: Checking calculus answers, or where only a numerical value is needed.

步驟
Use the GDC's numeric integral / derivative function with the limits or the point.

考試提示: Use a GDC from the IB-approved list in examination mode. Some papers do not permit a calculator. Always show your reasoning.

Statistics & probability distributions

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

用途: 1-var/2-var statistics, linear regression, and cumulative binomial / normal / Poisson probabilities without tables.

使用時機: Statistics questions and hypothesis tests.

步驟
Enter data in the statistics editor, or use the distribution menu (binomial cdf, normal cdf, …).

考試提示: Use a GDC from the IB-approved list in examination mode. Some papers do not permit a calculator. Always show your reasoning.

常見錯誤

  1. 1high涉及分數: 2Computational thinking

    Calling getNext() multiple times within a single iteration loop when traversing collections.

    如何避免: Call getNext() exactly once per iteration, store the returned object in a temporary variable, and perform all subsequent logical comparisons and operations on that variable.
  2. 2high涉及分數: 4Object-oriented programming (OOP)

    Accessing attributes or calling methods on array objects without executing a null pointer sentinel check, leading to runtime NullPointerExceptions.

    如何避免: Implement an explicit check 'if (array[i] != null)' to ensure the index actually holds an instantiated object reference before performing any operations on it.
  3. 3high涉及分數: 3Object-oriented programming (OOP)

    Violating encapsulation by accessing private object properties directly across class boundaries instead of using defined public accessor methods (getters).

    如何避免: Always invoke public getter methods (e.g., s.getArtworkPrice()) when accessing attributes from foreign class scopes.
  4. 4medium涉及分數: 3Computational thinking

    Failing to update all parallel arrays simultaneously during sorting algorithms, resulting in desynchronized and corrupted relational data.

    如何避免: Construct swap operations using temporary storage variables that swap elements across all associated parallel arrays at the exact same index.
  5. 5medium涉及分數: 6System fundamentals

    Providing one-sided, feature-list descriptions for 'compare and contrast' or 'evaluate' command words, rather than structured, balanced comparative analyses.

    如何避免: Use explicit comparative syntax ('whereas', 'unlike') and ensure you analyze both similarities/differences or advantages/disadvantages before writing a reasoned conclusion.
