Functions in the 2015 and 2016 Croatian State Matura in higher level Mathematics

This paper presents an analysis of Croatian State Matura exam tasks relating to the mathematical domain of functions. The analysis is conducted on the 2015 and the 2016 State Matura, both higher-level mathematics exams. Requirements of the tasks are explored and classified based on the instrument designed for this purpose. The instrument is conceptually based on the theory of “basic ideas” (originally: Grundvorstellungen) and Mathematical Proficiency theory. The objectives of the research were to explore the possibility of using such an instrument for task analysis, to determine the characteristics of the tasks in the Croatian State Matura, and to use student achievement to value their efficiency in the mathematical domain of functions in terms of specific classification provided by the instrument.
