Really enjoying this course so far (and the study day) - highly recommend it 😊

The most wonderful time of the year is here: Art Contest season! ✨ Head to desmos.com/art to learn more, and be sure to submit your graphs by January 15th, 2026! #mathsky #iteachmath

I've had a great time over the last two weeks meeting teachers on the first set of our 'The Maths of Data Science and AI' teacher study days. We're repeating the courses for #ALevelMaths teachers in the spring (with a bursary of £350 for the study day!). Apply now: amsp.org.uk/event/b23514...

This is awesome - it's made it really easy to generate charts that can be imported into documents to form the basis of a discussion

You can now copy our charts to the clipboard for easy sharing! Just click the “Share” icon in the bottom right of any chart and select “Copy chart as image”. No need to take a screenshot.

A radio programme like the Shipping Forecast but it’s called Bin Day and it just reads out every single council in the country’s bin schedule

Do your students see maths as just an answer‑finding exercise? With the right approach using their calculators, we can shift that mindset. Dive into how teacher modelling can spark deeper understanding. education.casio.co.uk/blog/how-mod...

In #mathstoday our team did some training on using Desmos to teach using one of these lovely webinar recordings from @tombutton.bsky.social and @sarahdenisonmei.bsky.social. amsp.org.uk/teachers/tea...

Next term we'll be running a version of our popular 'Maths into Data Science and AI' course for non-A level Maths students. This 9-session online course is ideal for students of Core Maths or A level Computer Science. You can sign your students up now at: amsp.org.uk/event/b08828...

Our popular PD course for #ALevelMaths teachers: 'The Maths of Data Science and AI' is now recruiting for the spring term It's 5 online sessions and a study day (with a £350 bursary to attend the day) You can sign-up now at: amsp.org.uk/event/b23514...

Wrapping up from a lovely few days meeting colleagues and researchers from all over the world. #ICTMT17London Love spending time with so many people who are working to improve maths education!

Great to see @meimaths.bsky.social up among the sponsors at #ICTMT17London

Here's the more traditional #DataViz plot! The data is this week's #TidyTuesday data from the @metoffice.gov.uk, where I focused on hours of sunshine per day in Leuchars! 🌤️ #RStats #ggplot2

This week, MEI is proud to sponsor places for teachers from state-funded schools/colleges to attend #ICTMT17. Catch Tom Button & Natalie Vernon on: “There’s more to Desmos than you think (1): deepening understanding of graphs & functions” #EdTech #MathsEd

We've also got a version of the course for students who aren't studying A level Maths - ideal for Core Maths or A level Computer Science students. amsp.org.uk/event/b08828...

The spring Maths into Data Science and AI (for #ALevelMaths Maths students) is now open for booking. 11 online sessions about data science, machine learning and AI. The autumn courses filled up really quickly! amsp.org.uk/event/91a508...

Indeed AI - machine learning type - won a Nobel prize last year www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemi...

But this is not actually a critique of AI - it’s one of LLMs. AI is much much more than that. And maybe this particular version doesn’t stick - like we’ve moved on from massive reels of magnetic tape to streaming, but one has built on the other alongside other changes in technology.

#ICTMT17 is going to be fantastic - maths tech designers, teachers and academic researchers from across the world will be there to discuss all aspects of using tech in our maths classrooms & #MEI is sponsoring 10 teacher places - buff.ly/mnzr2N5 Tell your friends!! 🤩🤩 ictmt17.org.uk/workshop-pro...

ICTMT (International Conference on Technology in Mathematics Teaching) is a great event. We're sponsoring 10 places at the teacher day in London on Wed 22nd October. If you want one of these please fill in the form ↓↓↓

We are proud to be sponsoring 10 places to attend the teacher day at ICTMT17 in London on 22 Oct buff.ly/piLruty Take part in workshops, meet sector leaders, hear MEI’s Tom Button & Natalie Vernon on using Desmos Apply: buff.ly/mnzr2N5 #ICTMT17 #MathsEd

In #MathsToday I'm wondering how to refer to a single @desmos.com instance. Should I tell pupils to 'use this desmos to investigate' or 'use this desmos sheet...' or something else...? Should they 'make a desmos' to illustrate a graph?

Join our next live webinar with Dr Cath Gripton as she shares the latest research and finding about how Maths is taught in Reception, Y7 and Y12 in England. Tuesday 18th November @ 16.00 Book: buff.ly/aI37pJ0

In #ALevelMaths yesterday, one of the Year 12s might have accidentally bought a rogue scientific calculator. Can you spot the differences? The Year 12 pupil was gutted as apparently the price was the same as a genuine one.

Bookings for these courses will close soon - likely by the end of this week. Please book now if you're wanting to attend.

Want to strengthen maths teaching across your school? Join our free 60-min webinar that explores how to implement the Oak National Academy Primary Maths Resources and plan a whole-school rollout. 7 Oct | Free 🔗 buff.ly/oYYEHWl #PrimaryMaths #MathsLeadership

And 4) generate your own data to model real-world data-generating processes. www.paddymacmahon.com/conferences/... I'd also put @desmos.com in the mix for point 3.

If you've never used CODAP before and would like some activities to try (with instructions) we've got some in the @meimaths.bsky.social 'Exploring Data with Technology' resources: mei.org.uk/resource/b5a...

What does this mean in the classroom? Why not try making some of these changes: 1) Use real or realistic data and data relevant to students 2) Spend less time in lessons calculating and graph drawing and more time analysing and discussing 3) Use software such as CODAP codap.concord.org

The Maths of Data Science and AI course features suggestions for how to integrate ideas around data science and AI into the teaching of #ALevelMaths It's 5 online sessions and a study day. The London study day is full but there's still places for Birmingham and Leeds amsp.org.uk/event/192742...
