Distance Between Two Points

(0)
This powerpoint lesson takes you through step by step how to calculate the distance between two points, including a review of Pythagoras’ theorem in order to help students understand the relationship between the two. There are examples of determining the distance when points are shown on a graph, when you are told two points, and determining an unknown co-ordinate if the distance is known. Each step is brought up by clicking the mouse button or arrow key.

Discrete Data

(0)
This series of 7 lessons starts with defining the types of data that will be used, as well as the definitions of the major terms for IGCSE statistics. Subsequent lessons go over the mean, median, mode, range, and interquartile range of discrete data. This includes how to calculate the actual or estimates of the measures from (grouped) frequency tables. There are also lessons on how to represent this data graphically, and compare data sets.

IGCSE Coordinate Geometry Lessons

(0)
This set of 5 lessons is made to help you share with your students the fundamental coordinate geometry skills required for the IGCSE Maths courses. The first lesson takes your through a revision of the coordinate plane, ordered pairs, and how to plot points. The subsequent lessons focus on finding the distance between two points, finding the midpoint of a line segment, and finding the gradient of a line. There is also a lesson that focuses on the relationship between parallel and perpendicular lines. Each lesson helps you take your students through sept-by-step, with each click of the mouse/arrow key bringing the next piece of information up through animations. Thus, avoiding your students suffering from information overload. There are several examples, as well as clear instructions as to how to accomplish each task.

Linear Equations and Their Graphs

(0)
This series of 4 lessons is designed to help you equip your students with the skills required for dealing with linear equations and their graphs. The first lesson goes over the fundamentals of the gradient-intercept form, and how to draw the graphs. The second lesson goes over how to derive the equation of a straight line from a graph or from written information. The third lesson goes over the relationship between the gradient-intercept form of a linear equation and the general form. It starts out by defining the general form, then how to convert between the two forms, and finally how to derive the equation from given information. The final lesson goes over how to use the point-gradient form, and simplify to the gradient intercept form. Each lesson goes over step-by-step instructions and explanations. Each new piece of information is brought onto the screen by clicking the mouse or the arrow key, thus helping to avoid information overload.
