This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore the differential function of a polynomial and conclude by forming a generalisation.

An instruction page explains to students that they should draw a polynomial. Then by sliding the slider the...

This resource contains eleven problems requiring students to explore where turning points occur, match statements about functions to statements about derivative functions and gradients of graphs at specific points on the curve, explore the tangent and normal to a curve, suggest a possible graph given information...

The Cre8ate maths project has provided a set of materials to support the teaching of mathematics in the context of digital design. The resources include Designing Logos, Maths in Art, Programming and Working with Photos, which will involve students in a variety of activities, allowing them to apply their...

These resources, written in 2011 and provided by the Joint Mathematical Council (JMC), discuss the role that digital technologies might and should have in mathematics education. Consideration is given to the types of experiences students encounter and how best to develop the curriculum to engage students in using...

This collection of case studies show how a wide cross section of educational professionals use and find inspiration from STEM Learning's digital resources.

This collection of lesson activity and enrichment day resources links computing to other curriculum areas in creative ways. Unplugged as well as on-screen activities are provided, featuring contributions from various organisations. Some activities require additional paid resources whilst most make use of free...

This resource from Jonny Griffiths contains a range of puzzles designed for 14 to 17 year old maths students. In each puzzle, the digits one to six have been rubbed out and replaced with six squares labelled a to f. The task is to put the digits back in again correctly to make each statement true...

Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path for a given problem. Dijkstra's algorithm can be used to find the shortest route between two cities. This algorithm is so powerful that it not only finds the shortest path from a chosen source to a given destination, it also finds all of the shortest paths from the...

This resource contains eight instant maths ideas designed to provide the opportunity for students to explore conversion graphs, compare imperial and metric units, estimate everyday measurements and explore the nature of different dimensions. The student resource sheet requires students to convert between different...

In this resource pupils will learn about geological time, different geological periods and how old the earth is. They will also learn about dinosaurs, their various characteristics, and how they are both similar to, and different from, reptiles we see today. They will discover there are three main different types...

This interactive excel file has separate sheets which deal with direct proportion where the functions are linear, quadratic, cubic and square root.

Each sheet begins with a statement of the proportional relationship,...

This SMILE resource contains one pack of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of directed numbers, from reading directed numbers from a scale to multiplying and dividing directed numbers.

Directed Numbers contains eleven work cards...

This resource written by Shirley Fall has thirteen cards each with a statement about directed numbers and how they lie on a 3 by 3 grid. The rationale is for students to discuss possible options and work towards a solution of which directed number lies in each of the grid cells.

The file named Directed...
