| Summary: | This programme contains ten short and stylish sequences, all shot during the construction of an outdoor ice rink at the Old Naval College in Greenwich. Each sequence features a different aspect of mathematics for pupils to explore and investigate. The mathematical content is intentionally understated, although the material rewards repeated viewing and provides a rich source of mathematical imagery. Each sequence poses a question intended to stimulate mathematical discussion rather than to elicit a correct answer to a computation. The programme is intended to be used in sections, with teachers and students stopping and replaying the video to analyse the information. It can be shown to pupils on a whiteboard where the pictures can be annotated, or worked on by pupils individually or in groups on PCs or laptops. The items are best used in programme order as some rely on information given or worked out in a previous clip. |
