From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity for post-16 students demonstrates that the acidity of a solution depends on the number of hydrogen ions per litre; the number of hydrogen ions per litre varies so much that a logarithmic scale is...
In this activity from the Nuffield Foundation students use the Chinese postman algorithm, also called the Route Inspection Problem, to solve practical problems. The College Open Day problem provides an introduction to the concept, and asks students to investigate the minimum distance someone would have to travel to...
In this resource students are required to use moving averages to investigate evidence for trends in local temperature change. There are links to the very real political and scientific debates regarding the question of climate change.
Climate Change Overview This brief overview makes...
The Nuffield Foundation provides this activity which students use to create spreadsheets that model what would happen to the temperature of the Earth if there were to be a sudden change in the amount of radiation entering or leaving the planet. Students then investigate polynomial and exponential functions to find...
The Nuffield Foundation provides this resource which shows students how, given a set of measurements along an irregular coastline, it is possible to approximate the area of land which is lost to coastal erosion over a period of time. Coastal erosion A - this activity uses the context of coastal erosion to introduce...
Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.
This thought provoking presentation introduces the mathematics of coincidences, challenges students to produce a spreadsheet which shows the probabilities of sharing a birthday, as well as highlighting the coincidence of...
Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.
This presentation introduces the Conics and provides a Geogebra file for students to explore how, by changing the eccentricity of a curve, the locus of a point is altered. They are also challenged to vary the constants of an...
EV refers to Electric Vehicles and in this lesson pupils explore data, statistics, graphs and infographics related to road traffic and emissions from cars in the UK...
In this lesson students explore data showing how much carbon dioxide different species of tree absorb from the atmosphere.
Students interpret data, statistics, graphs and infographics and make predictions and draw conclusions...
In this lesson students develop their estimation and proportional reasoning skills, developing a sense of scale of large ...
In this resource students deal with the problem of administering doses of a prescribed drug so that the body does not have too little or an excess of the drug. An understanding of half life is required. Students do not need to use more complicated formulae for...
Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.
This presentation investigates the value of π in different types of geometry and provides a link for students to experiment with Hyperbolic geometry. The classic definition of a distance function, or metric, is given and a...
The graph of a cubic function with three real roots is drawn. A circle is then drawn so that the circumference of the circle passes through two adjacent roots. A tangent to...
This resource, from the Royal Institution, provides students with the opportunity to explore the formation of a parabola through a paper folding activity. Students follow a set of simple instructions which describe how to fold a piece of A4 paper and are asked to describe what shape is produced. The activity is...
Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.
This presentation introduces the Reuleaux Triangle and shows how to construct a curve which has a constant width, as well as Barbier's Theorem and the Isoperimetric Inequality. Three dimensional shapes are also investigated...
