@ALevelMaths lovely teachers. In Further Maths mechanics- oblique collisions in 2D- I’ve found conflicting definitions of angle of deflection. Could someone clarify which angle do they want? Thanks! @susanwhitehouse.bsky.social @ecrmaths.bsky.social

I've made a Casio fx-CG100 guide for A Level Maths and Further Maths into a single video as well!

Just a reminder that if you are about to start teaching #ALevelMaths, this book is available from the Mathematical Association @mathematicala.bsky.social online shop. In my completely unbiased opinion, it's really quite useful.

FS1 teachers. Can you have a two tailed geometric distribution hypothesis test? I can't seem to see them in the edexcel textbook. Can someone clarify and maybe provide me with an example? @susanwhitehouse.bsky.social #ALevelMaths

Does anyone have a summary and examples of these graphs? It's from FP1?

Thanks both! My college is getting us the cg-100 this year. Up until now I just used the 991 so a lot to learn!

I would really encourage as many people as possible to complain to Ofqual about the Edexcel Paper 2 (Pearson/Edexcel are in blanket denial of any wrong doing mode). You can either use the Ofqual email addresses given here, or use their website to complain. #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

bmabg.bsky.social @bmabg.bsky.social · Jun 17

I’ve sent a formal complaint to Ofqual. I too strongly urge you to raise complaints to both Pearson & Ofqual, regardless of viewpoint.
Ofqual: [email protected] [email protected]
Pearson: [email protected] +44 (0)344 463 2535

Yes- thanks so much. We don’t have many who take exams but numbers are growing so getting to know the systems better. Your padlet is perfect.

Accidentally deleted my post 🙄
Here is the warm-up grid for Edexcel paper 2 #ALevelMaths

Two errors (so far) in the answers:
12a Normal should be y=4/3x-5/12
Q18: second value should be -9+6ln6
Thanks to @kerrydunton.bsky.social for sterling error-checking
