The introduction to this problem involves modelling a race from one tree to another, and the requirement to touch a fence on the way. The challenge is to determine the...
This paper from the May 2016 Using STEM Research Conference investigates the ways in which real world contexts can be used in D&T lessons, from local projects such as community gardening to global concerns such as climate change.

In this Core Maths activity students are invited to explore a range of casino based games to understand the probability, and likelihood of winning, when gambling.
The secret of winning: Teacher Guide
This teacher guidance introduces the reasoning behind the task, features of the...
In this Core Maths task students explore the question ‘On average, how many throws does it take to throw a six?’ Through this activity students can gain an understanding of ‘expectation’ as well as learning how to calculate summary statistics when the data is given in a frequency table.
Throwing a...
This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore transformations of functions including translations, stretches, reflection in the axes and rotations.
The first activity uses function notation to explore translations parallel to the x axis and...
This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore transformations of shapes including translation by a vector, stretches, rotations around a point, reflection in the axes and reflections in the lines y=x and y=-x.
The first activity draws a...

A triangle can have more than one centre and this presentation demonstrates the application of vectors, in three different situations, to show that the circumcentre, the centroid and the orthocentre of a triangle are indeed...
In this resource the side lengths of a triangle are given. The challenge is to find the ratio of the product of each of the tangents, divided by the sum of each of the tangents.
Each student worksheet contains a different triangle, but the answers all have something in common.
The solution involves...
This short task contains two questions on applying trigonometry.
The topics covered are:
- Linking sine, cosine and tangent
- Using Pythagoras to determine a length in a triangle and then give the tangent of an angle in surd form
- Using the Pythagorean identity sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1...

This presentation shows how, when placing triominoes onto a chessboard, there is always one empty square. An algebraic proof is developed to show that the empty square will always appear in the same location, or in one of...
This activity examines the use of percentages in research and the media. The examples used focus on the distinction between absolute and relative percentages and percentage changes. The need for improved education in the area of communication of risk is at the heart of...

There are six ways to write the total edge length, total surface area and volume of a cube, or cuboid, in order of size. This presentation challenges students to find a cube for each order. Autograph files are provided to...
This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore vectors, beginning with the definition of a vector followed by the algebra of vectors and the scalar product. The opening slides of the presentation explain the difference between scalar and vector...
This resource explores what volcanoes are and some of their key features. Students will learn why volcanoes erupt and the difference between effusive and explosive eruptions as well as understanding the effects magma viscosity can have on lava flows and eruptions by conducting experiments to test the impact of...
