Mathematics, home page....
Maths Lessons: Designed by Alan Jackson, a practising Maths teacher to serve the needs of teachers and students who wish to have fun learning, playing and revising their mathematics. Waldo's Maths Pages is a secondary level maths site. It is aimed at Key Stage 3 (11 to 14), GCSE (14 to 16), but mostly AS/A2 Maths and Further Maths (16 plus). Its content is 100% original and the creation of a maths teacher (and self-taught programmer) in Kent. Interactive Mathematics: Interactive Mathematics is an attempt to reduce "maths anxiety". His strategy is to provide a database of games and puzzles that require deductive skills. Puzzles and Fibonacci Numbers: An excellent website produced by the School of Electronic Engineering, IT and Mathematics at the University of Surrey. Fibonacci Numbers and Nature, The Golden Section in Art, Fantastic Flat Phi Facts, Architecture and Music, Fibonacci Forgeries and Who was Fibonacci? Mathematics Enrichment: Mathematical learning support for very able children of all ages. Based at the University of Cambridge School of Education, the website provides access to a collection of puzzles, games, mathematical problems, articles and activities. Math League: The Math League website is dedicated to bringing challenging mathematics materials to students. The website specializes in competitions. Over a million students participate in Math League contests each year and they are designed to cover a range of mathematical knowledge. GCSE Maths: This site has been developed specifically for students and for those wanting help with GCSE level exams. GCSE Answers: Launched in 1996, GCSE Answers is the grand-daddy of the GCSE revision websites and it remains to this day the most authoritative. Maths is Fun has been developed to encourage an interest in Mathematics. The main content of the site is aimed at Key Stage 3 and 4 (11 - 16 years old). However you will find some more complex stuff, and some easier bits. Hopefully there should be something for everybody. Interactive Online Geometry: Learn about all aspects of geometry at levels KS3 and KS4 (High School) level by doing interactive online activities. GCSE Higher Maths: This website provides free ICT resources for GCSE Higher Maths. EasyMaths: Free Maths Tutorials. Practice maths problems include tips on solving them. To help students relax when revision gets too much the website also features a collection of magic, jokes, games and puzzles. MathsNet Modules: An online ASA2 mathematics course at MathsNet. This course covers most modules in the current A Level scheme (P1 to P6, S1 to S3 and M1). M2 and M3 are still in development. The course includes over 600 pages of interactive explanations of concepts . Euclid Challenge: This website by Milton A. Mintz looks at the Euclid Challenge. It was necessary to go beyond "Traditional Euclidian methods", since it was proved by Pierrre Wantzel in the 19th century that when following these methods, it was impossible to "trisect any angle" or "square a circle". Mintz, an American Professor of Mathematics, uses only Euclid Tools: an unmarked straightedge and compass. Online Conversions: This website enables you to convert just about anything to anything else. This includes the following categories: Length/Distance, Temperature, Speed, Volume (Liquid and Dry), Weight, Metric, Computer, Date/Time, Cooking, Angles, Area Square, Power Watts, Energy Joules, Density, Force, Pressure, Astronomical, Numbers, Finance, Clothing, Light, Flow Rate and Acceleration. Handbook of Mathematical Functions: This online book includes the following chapters: Mathematical Constants, Physical Constants and Conversion Factors, Elementary Analytical Methods, Elementary Transcendental Functions Maths Skills Trainer: This website has over a 1000 games to test and improve addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills. These timed online tests are selected at random, and the ability level can be set to suit the individual. Registration is required to use the site, but sample activities are available. Maya Puzzles: This is a great collection of mathematics and logic related puzzles classified in six categories. Gives you hours of pleasure and satisfaction in solving these puzzles and by doing or attempting these puzzles. Google Calculator: To use Google's built-in calculator function, simply enter the expression you'd like evaluated in the search box and hit the Enter key or click the Google Search button. The calculator can evaluate mathematical expressions involving basic arithmetic, more complicated mathematics, units of measure and conversions and physical constants. You can also experiment with other numbering systems, including hexadecimal and binary. Geometry: This amazing website created by Antonio Gutierrez provides an eclectic mix of sound, science, and Incan history intended to interest students in Euclidean geometry. Recent additions include Simson Line (proof of Simson line), The Raft of the Medusa (problem solving with fractals and animation), Archimedes and the Rhombicuboctahedron (Archimedes the Geometer), Sierpinski Triangle and Machu Picchu (fractal illustration), Johnson's Theorem (three equal circles pass through a common point), Varignon and Wittenbauer Paralellograms (quadrilateral: midpoints and trisection points of the edges) and Van Aubel's Theorem (quadrilateral with s, Reflecting Shapes, Weird Shapes, Areas of Triangles and Volume of Cubes. Open Directory: Finally, this comprehensive directory contains over 10,025 websites on Mathematics: This includes Algebra (349), Analysis (133), Calculus (71), Chaos and Fractals (328), Combinatorics (378), Differential Equations (137), Geometry (448), Logic and Foundations (763), Number Theory (778), Numerical Analysis (261), Operations Research (213), Probability (114), Topology (188) and Trigonometry (8). |
