Centre for Teaching Mathematics

Members of the Centre for Teaching Mathematics are actively involved in creating new and innovative materials for schools.

This collection consists of the Exploring series aimed at A level students. There are three packs of resources; exploring pure mathematics, exploring statistics and exploring mechanics.

The collection also has two other resources. Thinking puzzles, useful for encouraging Key Stage Three and Key Stage Four students to think laterally to solve puzzles and World games which describes how to play a number of games which originate in different countries.

Exploring Series

In the early 1990’s The Centre for Teaching Mathematics at the University of Plymouth published a series of books – the 'Exploring...' series.

The books covered pure mathematics, mechanics and statistics, providing a bank of problems and investigations which challenge students to think more deeply about...

Thinking Puzzles

This resource, produced by the Centre for Teaching Mathematics at the University of Plymouth, contains ten ‘puzzles to get the brain working!’

Each puzzle is designed to make students think laterally, consider the question carefully and not give the most obvious answer. The puzzles could be used as lesson...

Mathematical Games from Around the World

The skills of strategy, forward thinking and logical thought are ones which make a good mathematician. Students can learn these skills through certain board games. This resource, produced by the Centre for Teaching Mathematics at the University of Plymouth, contains playing instructions for six mathematical games...
