This series of interactive excel sheets look at projectiles, either on or above the horizontal plane.

The first sheet defines the symbols and units used the remaining sheets.

This article, by Professor Paul Glaister, University of Reading,  discusses some of the issues relating to the promotion of Core Maths to students, parents, schools and colleges and their senior leadership teams, and also to employers and higher education (HE). It considers the educational landscape...

With the introduction of the revised National Curriculum programmes of study, one of the Hampshire Leading Mathematics Teachers’ (LMT) core groups decided to focus on activities to promote cross-curricular STEM work in schools.

The STEM Knowledge Network based at King Edward’s Stourbridge has developed a range of materials to further the active use of statistics within the sciences.

These have been trialled in some subject areas and are...

This interactive workbook begins with a sheet which illustrate properties of odd, even and consecutive numbers. These properties are illustrated numerically and algebraically. The next two sheets deal with properties of the sum, difference and product of these numbers...

This resource from Susan Wall contains five activities designed to enable students to explore the properties of functions in order to connect ideas together. Students learn how to solve equations, how to differentiate, how to find equations of tangents… but sometimes fail to see the picture as a whole. These...

This activity is produced by the Maths Magic project. Properties of a Particle provides examples and ideas for A-level mathematics and physics students investigating the properties ascribed to particles. Students discuss why these properties are needed and ask are they realistic? Activities include analysing the...

Protecting Your Head, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about engineering. The context for the activities is the design of head protection for snowboarders where the risk of injury...

From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity for post-16 students shows that correlation can be used to measure the strength of a linear relationship.

Statistical Inference looks for evidence of what is happening in the population by...

This resource is part of a Nuffield Maths collection exploring Shape and Space. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

In this resource students use Pythagoras’ Theorem to a series of solve problems.

This collection of resources is from the evolving Government agencies that have maintained and developed the National Curriculum and associated assessments, tests and examinations, advising the Secretary of State for Education on these matters.
