The Researching Effective CPD in Mathematics Education (RECME) project was set up under the umbrella of the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM) in England, who provide these resources.

The project's aim was to provide advice, guidance and recommendations to be used by NCETM...

This Catalyst article looks at cuttlefish which have a remarkable ability to change their appearance at high speed. But how do they do this?

This article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2016, Volume 26, Issue 4.

This simulation looks at resistance in a wire. Students can change the resistivity, length, and area to see how they affect the wire's resistance. The sizes of the symbols in the equation change along with the diagram of a wire as the variables are changed.

Two videos investigating the resistance of a wire. The first video allows students to carry out an experiment on the resistance of a length of wire from home and the second evaluates the results by drawing a graph. This is a required practical students to be able to understand and carry out for GCSE Combined...
