Abstract

Mathematical biology has made great progress in recent years, particularly in epidemiology during or even before the COVID-19 pandemic. Mathematical modeling has played a key role in this progress. In this paper, we examine whether the teaching and learning of mathematics in Moroccan high school takes into consideration specialty disciplines such as biology. To do this, we are looking for the applications of biology in the Moroccan mathematical programs in the second year of the baccalaureate option life and earth sciences. First, we analyze the pedagogical guidelines concerning mathematical applications in specialty disciplines. In addition, we analyze the textbooks concerning the second year of baccalaureate option life and earth sciences. The results show that mathematical applications in experimental sciences, especially in biology, for the mathematics program of the second year of the baccalaureate are still very limited in the Moroccan curriculum, whether in learning activities or exercises.
