At which grade level is the concept of derivatives introduced in the new curriculum in Vietnam?
Based on Subsection 2, Section 5 of the Mathematics General Education Curriculum issued together with Circular 32/2018/TT-BG/DDT, students in grades 11 and 12 are taught about derivatives. The concept of derivatives is introduced in grade 11.
According to the provisions of Article 2 of Circular 32/2018/TT-BGDDT, the implementation of the General Education Curriculum is as follows:
The General Education Curriculum is implemented in the following phases:
1. From the school year 2020-2021 for grade 1.
2. From the school year 2021-2022 for grades 2 and 6.
3. From the school year 2022-2023 for grades 3, 7, and 10.
4. From the school year 2023-2024 for grades 4, 8, and 11.
5. From the school year 2024-2025 for grades 5, 9, and 12.
The most recent program will be applied to students of all grades nationwide from the school year 2024-2025.
Therefore, in the school year 2024-2025, 12th-grade students will continue to learn about derivatives, following the 11th-grade program from the previous year.

What are the content and requirements that 11th-grade students in Vietnam need to achieve when learning about derivatives?
Based on Subsection 3, Section 5 of the Mathematics General Education Curriculum issued together with Circular 32/2018/TT-BG/DDT, the content and requirements for 11th-grade students learning about derivatives are as follows:
| Content | Requirements |
| Concept of derivatives. Geometric meaning of derivatives | - Recognize some problems leading to the concept of derivatives, such as determining the instantaneous velocity of a non-uniformly moving object, determining the rate of temperature change. - Recognize the definition of derivatives. Calculate the derivative of some simple functions using the definition. - Recognize the geometric meaning of derivatives. - Establish the equation of the tangent line to the graph of a function at a point on the graph. - Recognize the number e through banking interest rate modeling problems. |
| Rules for calculating derivatives | - Calculate the derivative of some basic elementary functions (such as polynomial functions, simple radical functions, trigonometric functions, exponential functions, logarithmic functions). - Apply formulas for the derivatives of sums, differences, products, quotients of functions, and the derivative of composite functions. - Solve some problems related to other subjects or practical problems involving derivatives (e.g., determining the instantaneous velocity of a non-uniformly moving object, etc.). |
| Second-order derivatives | - Recognize the concept of second-order derivatives of a function. - Calculate the second-order derivatives of some simple functions. - Solve some problems related to other subjects or practical problems involving second-order derivatives (e.g., determining acceleration from the velocity-time graph of a non-uniformly moving object, etc.). |
What are the content and requirements that 12th-grade students in Vietnam need to achieve when learning about derivatives?
Based on Subsection 3, Section 5 of the Mathematics General Education Curriculum issued together with Circular 32/2018/TT-BG/DDT, the content and requirements for 12th-grade students learning about derivatives are as follows: Application of derivatives to explore and draw specific function graphs:
| Content | Requirements |
| Monotonicity of functions | - Recognize the increasing and decreasing behavior of a function on an interval based on the sign of its first-order derivative. - Represent the increasing and decreasing behavior of the function in a variation table. - Recognize monotonicity, critical points, and extreme values of the function through the variation table or the geometric representation of the function graph. |
| Maximum and minimum values of functions | - Recognize the maximum and minimum values of a function on a given domain. - Determine the maximum and minimum values of a function using derivatives in simple cases. |
| Analysis and graphing of functions | - Recognize the geometric representation of horizontal asymptotes, vertical asymptotes, and oblique asymptotes of the function graph. - Describe the general procedure for exploring a function (finding the domain, examining monotonic behavior, finding critical points, finding asymptotes, preparing the variation table, drawing the graph). - Explore the domain, monotonic behavior, critical points, asymptotes, variation table, and graph of the functions: y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d (a ≠ 0); y = (ax + b)/(cx + d) (c ≠ 0, ad - bc ≠ 0); y = (ax^2 + bx + c)/(mx + n) (a ≠ 0, m ≠ 0, and the numerator not being divisible by the denominator). - Recognize the symmetry (axis of symmetry, point of symmetry) of the graph of the above functions. |
| Application of derivatives to solve practical problems | Apply derivatives and function analysis to solve practical problems. |
