Simplex & The Science Of Burger Making
The simplex algorithm, sometimes dubbed the world’s most powerful, sits at the heart of linear programming. Classically the subject of tertiary-level study, Dantzig’s simplex algorithm can be used to solve important problems like how to make a ‘better’ burger patty. …
DOGBALL 2.0 – A Study of Bounce – Part 1

As Big As Can Be
The introductory videos introduce students to a complete unit of work, a study of quadratic functions. The unit starts with a geometric optimisation problem (paper folding) that prompts students to ask the question “is that as big as can be?” …

Generosity – an approach to fractions and percentages.
This unit uses the context of generosity to introduce a need to have a fractional way of thinking about something.
It develops a way of thinking about fractions – the for-every idea – that is the elusive multiplicative model.
Developed over about 5 years, this approach has been tried and seems to work. 🙂
