A case study from Mathematics Matters which looks at the development of optical fibres and how mathematical models have simplified the process of producing them. Modern society relies heavily on a variety of networks, but we don’t fully understand how they behave. Mathematical network theory lets us create models...
This ASAB (Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour) resource pack focuses on parental behaviour in nuthatches, in particular the parent-chick interactions during feeding.
The resource provides a summary of the key events in the rearing of a nuthatch brood and a film of parent-chick interactions during...
Help encourage your child's STEM skills, passion and talent with this parents' guide to engineering careers.
Produced by the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI), this interactive resource looks at the people and processes involved in the development of a new medicine. Developing a medicine takes about 10 to 12 years and involves a number of phases. This resource looks at the researchers involved and...
Perseverance is a NASA rover that landed on Mars, in February 2021. The rover is searching for past evidence for life on Mars and collecting samples to be returned to Earth with a planned sample return mission, from NASA and the European Space Agency, ESA.
This resource activity pack supports the video...
This case study describes how Steph Forrester became a senior lecturer in sports technology. Her research aims to support the development of better sports equipment for the user. ‘Better’ can mean helping an athlete achieve their personal best, providing greater comfort or allowing them to perform with greater...
A Mathematics Matters case study looking at how mathematical software supports new developments in imaging technology. Mathematical image processing techniques make it possible for us to capture, transmit and store photographs and video. They also let us restore noisy or damaged images and extract useful...
This STEMNET resource describes the background and career of STEM Ambassador Danny Finn, a piping stress engineer.
Danny works for a company that build facilities to liquify natural gas before its transportation. His specialism is in determining whether pipe work will survive its required operating lifetime...
From the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), this poster describes the Planck mission that is enabling scientists to map ripples in the electromagnetic echo of the Big Bang, across the entire sky, to build up a picture of the early Universe in unprecedented detail. The resource looks at: * The...
Ella is an expert in the mechanical design and operation of the NOC's Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV's) She ensures new technology designed integrates on the AUV's and operates the AUV whilst at sea.
Ella read Mechanical Engineering at Cambridge, graduating with both Bachelors and Master's degrees. She...
Catherine holds a PhD in Robotics and a BSc Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science. She studied A-levels in Physics, Maths, and Computing with an AS-level in Electronics.

This Mathematics Matters case study looks at the serious problem of coastal erosion. Much of the UK’s coastline is undergoing erosion, placing homes, businesses and other important coastal sites at risk. Mathematical modelling can enable us to understand both the short and long term processes that lead to erosion,...
Standards Unit: Improving Learning in Mathematics professional development materials. Features notes and presentations describing the active learning approaches.
Getting started To encourage participants to: * reflect on their current assumptions, beliefs, and teaching practices; * consider...
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...
Produced in 2015, these resources look at the development of encoding messages and how technology and science has developed to allow us to keep messages secure. Looking at unintuitive quantum properties of light, Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principal and entanglement, students will see how keys can be shared to ensure...
