The resources in this Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) collection look at fuel poverty and the topical issue of the cost and efficient use of energy. There is an emphasis on the use of functional mathematics to analyse and interpret published facts and figures. The resources can be used individually...

Power for Young Mathematicians was first published in March 1988 as a submission by MESU (The Micro-Electronics Support Unit) to the National Curriculum Mathematics Working Party.

At the time of publication, computers were relatively new to many schools and there was much debate about how they could be used...

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students with the opportunity to explore the risk of failure of safety systems in a power station.

"A Power station experiences a loss of coolant to its reactor about once per year. To...

This STEM resource looks at different types of energy, energy in engineering, the importance of electricity and how this is generated. It investigates different types of renewable energy through a number of engineering themed hands-on and practical activities.

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of powers and roots, from identifying square numbers to investigating numbers expressed as powers.

Powers and roots pack one contains twelve work cards...

These two books from the Shell Centre are part of the Extended Tasks for GCSE Mathematics support material produced for students as they pursued practical geometry tasks within any mathematics scheme. The practical geometry tasks were intended to stimulate students'...

This resource focusses on probability, using the act of taking an item of fruit at random from a bag. In this activity learners will develop understanding of the possible outcomes of simple random events. They will also understand that there is a degree of uncertainty about the outcome of some events. The teacher...
