This series of interactive excel sheets investigate models involving an inclined plane.

The first sheet helps students to investigate the conditions for movement of an object on a horizontal plane.

This resource from Susan Wall contains five activities designed to enable students to explore indices both numerically and algebraically. The resource features a number of activities dealing with negative indices and fractional indices.

Starter activities: contains two starter activities. In...

This RISP activity from can be used when either consolidating or revising ideas of curve-sketching and indices. The numbers phi, e and pi are used in this investigation where students are asked to estimate the size numbers generated when raising these numbers to different powers. It is suggested that a graphing...

This resource contains ten problems which require students to think, explore and explain the mathematical topic of indices and surds. The problems require students to not only be able to manipulate expressions containing indices and surds but also be able to explain and justify how conclusions are arrived at. A...

Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

This presentation starts with the inequalities associated with triangles and challenges students to develop proofs of the inequalities found in other situations, using the arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means.

The...

Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

This presentation highlights the concept of infinity and its implications, as well as introducing the mathematician Georg Cantor and the arguments relating to infinity that he came up with.

The resource is designed to...

From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity for post-16 students shows how regular sampling of a variety of prices is used to get a measure of inflation. There is more than one possible way to do this. A measure of inflation is used to...

This toolkit looks at how inflation is measured and what the data is used for. Students can use the Shopping prices comparison tool and data from the Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers’ housing costs (CPIH) dataset. They can use them to explore the implications of inflation for consumers, businesses...

Produced by the Learning Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), this case study tackles the theme of functional skills. By HMP Durham, the case study is an account of the basic skills initial assessment and diagnostic procedure each learner undergoes on entry to the prison.

The study follows the learner...
