Students use algebraic and spreadsheet formulae in Excel to calculate simple and compound interest.

This resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.

This contains two excel programs with interactive spreadsheets designed to show the graphical solution to pairs of simultaneous equations and provide their solutions.

The first sheet of this interactive excel file provides students with calculations to confirm that ^a...

The investigation begins by looking at the area of three segments related to a quadratic. The investigation begins with a practical investigation using measurement of lengths and angles. The...

The Pacific island nation of Kiribati recently announced its purchase of land in mountainous Fiji for its population to move to when sea level rises make life on its own low-lying islands impossible. In this activity students use data to predict sea level rises, including uncertainties, and decide whether humans...

The effective use of the Gravity Jet Suit requires a high level of control, for the pilot, over their core, leg and arm muscles.  This resource explains that biomechanics is the synergy between muscles and bones and shows some of the joints used in flying in the suit.

The resources in this Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) collection look at the aerodynamic characteristics of objects. Students explore the requirements of aerodynamic design through testing simple shapes in a wind tunnel. The activities focus on students acquiring an understanding of aerodynamics...
