Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

In this presentation students are given a function and explore the mapping of natural numbers, as well as being challenged to find the inverse function. A link to the online encyclopaedia of integer sequences is provided for...

In order to understand the orbits of planets, comets and other celestial bodies, it is necessary to examine the principles of how gravity, and the velocity of an object, interact to produce an orbit. It is a common misconception among students that planetary orbits are circular. This practical activity gives a...

In this Core Maths activity students are drafted into a company’s marketing department for a day. Students have to make assumptions in order to decide how to budget £100,000 across the three forms of advertising available to them (TV, radio and billboards).

A Markov chain is a mathematical system that undergoes transitions from one state to another, between a finite number of states.

This resource comprises a spreadsheet which allows students to enter values into the transition matrix and the initial state matrix of 2x2 and 3x3 matrices then perform a number of...

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students practise differentiating quadratic functions and finding the values of a function and its derivative at specific points. They will distinguish between f (x) and f ′(x), relate values of f (x) and f ′(x) to the graph of y = f (x) and reflect on and discuss these...

A matching is a set of edges on a bipartite graph in which no two edges share a common vertex. A bipartite graph consists of two sets of vertices X and Y. The edges only join vertices in X to vertices in Y. A matching in a bipartite graph is the pairing of some or all of the vertices in X with some or all of the...

Mathcentre has been set up to deliver mathematics support materials, free of charge, to students, teachers, lecturers and everyone looking for help with post-16 mathematics.

Mathcentre gives students the opportunity to study important areas of pre-university mathematics, which they may have studied before or...

The United Kingdom Mathematics Trust (UKMT) is a registered charity whose aim is to advance the education of children and young people in mathematics. Originally established in 1996, the UKMT organises national mathematics competitions and other mathematical enrichment activities for 11-18 year old UK students. The...

This collection from the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM) contains eight resources under the headings of:
* Using Technology Creatively and Appropriately
* Improving Learning in Mathematics
* Using Rich Collaborative Tasks
* Using Cooperative Group Work...

In 2009, the Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education (ACME), who provide these resources, embarked on the Mathematical Needs Project to investigate how both the national needs and the individual needs of students, from age five to nineteen in England, could be met by a curriculum, delivery policy and...

The competition is for Scottish schools and is divided into four divisions: Primary (P7), Junior (S1 and S2), Middle (S3 and S4), and Senior (S5 and S6).  Each year there are two rounds of problems for Secondary schools and three rounds for Primary schools.

The transition into post-compulsory mathematics education is summarised in this resource from the University of Manchester, which contains quotes from students and teachers about their experiences of working with the GCSE mathematics curriculum.

The report includes the following implications from the study...

The Mathematics Matters case studies have been written to address the issue that contemporary mathematics research affects the daily lives of a very large number of people worldwide, yet most remain in almost total ignorance of this fact. The case studies aim to give examples of contemporary research and describe...

The Nuffield Advanced Mathematics reader provided articles as background or extensions to topics covered elsewhere in the course. The aim was to encourage students to make further study of the development and applications of the ideas about which they were learning....
