STEM - A-Level Maths pathway
Your science or engineering course will contain quite a lot of maths: many scientific phenomena are described by equations, rates of change will be important and graphs will be used. It is important that you feel comfortable with all of these, so some practice and revision of what you already know will enable you to concentrate on the new scientific concepts you will meet.
The activities for your first week of the Ready Set Loughborough maths badge will be posted here on Monday 23 August.
Activities for the following weeks will always be posted at the start of each week.
How the badge works
There are 6 blocks of materials, designed to be completed as one block per week. Each week there will be some starter questions which you should try. The topics will not all be visible and will be released on the Monday of each week, giving you time to work through each one before you move on.
If you were confident answering the questions, and you got them right then you are done for the week. If you do not feel confident, then carefully go through the explanations and exercises in the HELM workbooks provided, using the link to the interactive HELM questions for extra practice. There are also additional resources and videos available. After finishing the six weeks, you will have a good understanding of the maths you will study in your degree!
