Use an appropriate assessment task to illustrate the taxonomy for assessment in mathematical literacy. The task should include questions with respect to all the levels of the taxonomy.   (20) 

To what extent does the Pisa framework for mathematical literacy (question 2) coincide with the framework used in the CAPS document for mathematical literacy? Illustrate the similarities and differences by means of

a diagram.                                                                  

2.

The PISA report provided the mathematical framework used to assess learners' levels of mathematical literacy. Give a diagrammatic representation of this framework, clearly indicating the role played by context, content and competencies (skills) in problem solving. The diagram should also distinguish between different contexts, content and competencies, as well as the type of problems.  (30)
