The first two sheets of this excel file shows sets of data about the weight of cows in two herds. The cumulative frequencies can be revealed and the quartiles and median are shown derived from the cumulative frequency graph. The next sheet shows the comparison of the two herds as shown by the box and whisker...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 9B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 9.

Cumulative frequency covers: a recap of the three types of average, a recap of range, how to graph grouped data, how to find the average of grouped data, culmulative frequency,...

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring Algebra. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level.

In this resource students model data measuring how long caffeine from tea, coffee or cola stays in the human body’s bloodstream. This involves drawing graphs, then...

This Catalyst article looks at NASA's Mars Curiosity rover, the automated chemistry lab which landed safely on Mars in August 2012. Capable of analysing samples from the planet's surface and atmosphere, the rover will undertake two years of experiments in the hope of discovering even more about our neighbouring...

This resource is an introduction to conversion graphs and direct proportionality in the context of currency conversion, reading and plotting graphs and calculating gradients, including using a spreadsheet.

The resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources explores Data Handling. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

The materials are an introduction to conversion graphs and direct proportionality in the context of currency conversion,...

From the science QCA, QCDA and Ofqual collection, these resources outline the curriculum required for various ages of student, along with subject criteria for examinations.

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...

In this activity students investigate the mystery of a light beam which seems to bend.  Students can investigate:

• Qualitative behaviour of light  when the medium in which it propagates changes its refraction index. 
• Quantitative evaluation of the behaviour of light in refraction by means of...

'What do materials scientists do? They investigate the properties of materials. Sometimes they try to make a material for a purpose. Sometimes a material is discovered and they explore its potential uses. The properties of all materials must be rigorously assessed.'

These practicals and videos use a...

Seven activity sheets produced by the Institute of Physics (IOP) to accompany the MODEL Project's Cutting Edge Materials video.

Worksheet one takes an overview of the topic. Worksheets two - seven are targeted at specific sections of the video.

Answers to all the worksheet questions are provided in...
