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

This resources is an introduction to differentiation. Students are shown how to use a spreadsheet to find the gradients of functions of the form xⁿ. This...

This resource contains two activities each containing a set of problems graduated in difficulty.

[b]Rectangles:[/b] Contains twenty seven questions requiring students to answer simple problems about the area and the perimeter of rectangles gradually becoming more challenging with questions such as find four...

Act 1

A video shows the start of a graduation ceremony with...

This collection of careers-related posters can be used to showcase some of the challenges that Government, universities and employers are working together to try and solve.

These posters cover four challenges:

• Artificial intelligence - Saving lives by using AI to diagnose chronic diseases....

The Grand Challenges was a successful programme that ran from 2018 to 2023. This programme aimed to help young people develop the skills needed to bridge the gap between learning and career choices. In...

In this activity, groups of students are given the list of functions contained in the matching cards file and given time to work out what the graph of each function will look like. Some graphs will need to be plotted, others can be sketched. The functions are a mix of quadratics, cubics and reciprocals. The posters...

This interactive game from the Association for Science Education (ASE) tackling the interpretation of distance/time graphs in the context of a football match. Graph Shots is an interactive game that develops students' understanding of distance/time graphs. Students compare graphs with written accounts and video...

This collection of videos has three sections.

The first resource explains what is meant by function notation and how transformations can be expressed using this notation.

The second resource contains two videos showing how graphs can be translated. The graphs are shown along with the relevant notation...

This resource from Defence Dynamics outlines the role played by the Meteorological Office (Met Office), an executive agency of the Ministry of Defence, in providing international weather forecasts and severe weather warnings. Using Met Office data and a case study of Hurricane Katrina, students learn how graphical...

This program allows students to solve pairs of equations by drawing 2 graphs and looking at the points of intersection. The graphs can be cubic, quadratic or linear. The 1st interactive sheet allows students to plot pairs of graphs by changing the coefficients of y=ax...

This resource is an interactive excel program to enable students to investigate the solution of polynomial equations up to cubics using a graphical method.

The program shows the graphs of cubic equations and the...

Graphing Lines gives the opportunity for students to explore the parameters of a linear equation; how modifying the graph affects the equation and how modifying the equation affects the graph. Students can draw reference lines y=x and y=-x to help with their deliberations. Students may change the point of...

The ‘Graphing Stories’ collection is a collaborative project run by Dan Mayer and the ‘BuzzMath’ team. Each story comprises a video that shows a practical situation where a measure, such as height or weight, varies with time. The situation is then replayed at a slower rate to help enable the viewer to assess more...

Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these resources are aimed at mathematics practitioners.

In this resource, sessions look at:

• Introducing graphs of linear equations (using rich collaborative tasks)
• Finding the equation of a tangent to a curve using...
