This CensusAtSchool resource is based on key concepts needed by students doing GCSE mathematics, although it may be useful for an introductory review at A level or for strong Key Stage Three students. Pairs are asked to discuss statements on cards and decide, with...

This toolkit from Plus magazine and Arctic Survey Education explores statistical aspects of the expedition, including the 'spin' that can be put on statistical evidence to make it sound positive or negative, and methods to predict future trends in Arctic climate change.

The whole toolkit can be downloaded...

The Nuffield Foundation provide this resource where students use simulated stature data for men and women in eight countries to draw histograms and look for general results, as manufacturers need to take these into account when they design products. This is mainly intended as an introduction to the normal...

This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows the application of mathematics within the field of mechanical engineering. Here students learn that lack of proper insulation results in large energy losses which, over time, cost a lot of money. Models are used to calculate the value of the critical...

Produced in 2015, these resources look at research involving the use of nanoparticles and fluorescent proteins to track transplanted stem cells in living organisms.

They can be used to tackle a range of topics in post...

In this activity students begin with a simple introduction to the stock market; calculating new prices for a variety of fictional shares based on daily percentage changes.

The task requires students to calculate simple percentage changes. A spreadsheet is provided for students to record their results which...

This resource contains seven problems requiring students to think, explore, explain and justify the mathematics they use in order to solve the problems presented. Students will explore the equations of straight lines, parallel lines, perpendicular lines, equations of straight lines in a variety of forms and to find...

This interactive excel program is about finding the equation of straight lines in the form ax+by+c=0. The first two sheets deals with the equation of the line through two given points and the equation of the line through a point perpendicular to a given line. The...

This is one of a suite of continuing professional development (CPD) units from the Department for Education covering the five ‘key ideas’ at Key Stage Three (cells, interdependence, particles, forces and energy). It links with the...

This investigation looks at seeing the stress concentrations in a variety of objects using polarised light.  It would work well when looking at material properties and uses basic equipment.

This guide supports students following the Geology: Structure of the Earth topic. The topic, produced by Northumberland County Council, is designed to encourage self supported study and students are expected to work their way through independently, developing their study skills. This student guide introduces the...

From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity shows how, when introducing a new way of doing things, it is useful to model how it is likely to work. When comparing the value of money over a period of years, inflation needs to be taken into...

From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity shows how changing the assumptions which a model is based on can change the way it behaves. It is important to compare predictions from a model to what we know happens in real life. This unit...

This MEI Online Resources file for Edexcel FP1 provides information on Complex Numbers and Equations. Topics include equating real and imaginary parts, roots of complex numbers and polynomial equations with complex roots. A study plan for Heinemann textbooks is also available, together with crucial points for...
