@mathsmuse.bsky.socialIn #MathsToday #ALevelMaths I'm trialling a new HW approach with yr 12. HW is to be prepared to get 100% knowledge on a 15 minute test of the week's content. They do it, peer mark with exam mark schemes. I check and set detentions/interventions for those that do not get that point.
@paddymacmahon.comComplex numbers practice in L6 #FurtherMaths #ALevelMaths #MathsToday.
@draustinmaths.comNew A-level Further Maths resources added today:
✨Different Forms of Complex Numbers Fill in the Blanks
✨Multiplying and Dividing Complex Numbers Match-Up
Steadily building a (hopefully useful) bank of Further Maths resources at www.draustinmaths.com/a-level-further-maths

@mathforge.orgWatched BBC's new quiz "The Wisdom of the Crowds".
Big turn-offs for me:
1. The intro. The correct way to refer to him is "the *eugenicist* Francis Galton". Or, preferably, not at all.
2. The questions. No distinction as to which average was being used.
@tickyvanner.bsky.socialOoh going to try this with my new year 12 group. #alevelmaths
@kerrydunton.bsky.social#MathsToday #ALevelMaths can anyone help with how you know which approach to take?
@davegjones.bsky.socialBrilliant! #alevelmaths
@neechmaths.bsky.socialFollowing on from some recent discussions on here and as I am teaching it next week, please tell me what are your favourite desmos (or similar) activities for teaching combinations of transformations? #Alevelmaths
@paddymacmahon.comArgand diagrams in #FurtherMaths #ALevelMaths #MathsToday, so I made a little completion table.
@jennycains.bsky.socialIn #ALevelMaths today, my Year 13s gave this parametric equations problem from Underground Maths a go. I was pleasantly surprised with how well they got on with it. Lots of great discussions 😁 undergroundmathematics.org/chain-rule/p...
@neechmaths.bsky.socialIn #mathstoday yr 1 #alevelmaths did so well with Ab-surd! from underground maths. Didn’t really feel like I had to teach them much, they worked it all out themselves through some great discussions. Yr 2 did some textbook practice on functions, a simple lesson, but very much needed for this group.
@paddymacmahon.comComplex numbers in #FurtherMaths #ALevelMaths #MathsToday, so we looked at this problem:
Explain why the absolute values of the real and imaginary parts of the square of a Gaussian integer give the legs of a Pythagorean triple.
@meimaths.bsky.social📊 From data analysis to predictive modelling, discover how familiar A level Mathematics concepts connect to machine learning and AI.

@jbrough13.bsky.socialIn #MathsToday my #ALevelMaths Y2 students did some work on combined transformations of functions. We have the first assessment of the year coming up on Thursday and then starting Trigonometry next week!
Solid start to the year from both classes, expectations are high for this cohort.
@ridermeister.bsky.socialLovely related activity on Underground Maths. Really like the discussion of alternative methods, particularly using polynomials!

@paddymacmahon.comDiscussing my favourite two facts about random variables with my U6 #FurtherMaths #ALevelMaths in #MathsToday:
They're not random, and they're not variables.
Has got me thinking about flying lemurs...
