variety to students' learning week 5. Exploring Maths and solving
problems can be extremely enjoyable. What will I Study? Core 1 and
2 (plus 3 and 4 in year 2) concern the study of algebra; you will
look at functions and graphs including trigonometric functions and
will learn about calculus - the study of rates of change. Mechanics
is about the study of Forces and motion. Decision looks at the
mathematical processes by which businesses can make decisions that
maximise their efficiency. Statistics explores the question as to
how we can decide whether a theory is true given the random nature
of the world. How will I be Taught? You will be taught using a
variety of approaches: Participatory lecturing – some ideas need a
clear explanation from an expert, but lectures will always involve
a lot of student involvement. Investigation – sometimes you will
explore a problem yourself to discover new Maths Group tasks –
these are designed to ensure that you discuss and refine your
mathematical thinking Peer teaching – learn a new idea as a small
group and then explain it to others. When you have to explain a
concept to othe How will I be Assessed? Assessment is via 3
terminal exams each year, one for each module studied. What our
students say? Almost all students rate their enjoyment of the
