So much pupil attention captured (understandably) by predicted grades. So much teacher time spent in the process. All part of an inexact science with an enormous opportunity cost. The failure to reform the system is a striking example of institutional timidity. #MathsToday #ITeachMath #MathSky

In #MathsToday #AlevelMaths one of the questions highlighted an issue as lots of them divided by sin X and so lost some of the solutions. Does anyone have a collection of questions I can use to try to drum this out of them?

( I mean-how do you know when positive and when negative?)

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 22/11/2025
Thanks both! That makes perfect sense.. and yeah! I saw the mark scheme and thought: whaaaat?!! One last question please - why do you use negative e for the second collision?

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 21/11/2025
#ALevelMaths dear lovely teachers-putting out further mech bat signal again-could someone help with finding the components in the second collision? Do I need to do projections? Thanks! @jrub.bsky.social @susanwhitehouse.bsky.social @over-drawn.bsky.social @themathsbazaar.bsky.social

@emilyrcwilson.bsky.social just listening to your translation of the Iliad- Hecuba’s plea to Hector moved me to tears- “ my baby boy” is what I call my 20 year old - my youngest-breasted till 2-Classics lover. Looking forward to your essay collection.

Thanks! Either a+b or 180-a-b.

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 15/09/2025
Oh- thanks! The other definition I had was (following your description) 180-A-B . I got confused with Q1 June 2012 M4 edexcel.

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 14/09/2025
@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

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

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

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.

Reasonably fast- a leg has to be substantial and a stint is short.

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
The things that I mark are on physical paper like the exam- I worry sometimes that they get use to digital tools then in the exam they write super disorganised
010
Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 08/05/2025
I don’t, no-all my ppts, worksheets, past papers, etc go in files in Teams. The notebook i use for things that they fill in or upload that I want to check or potentially check later. Also their reflections after tests or their plans for progression
010
Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
Yes. There are some who never upload anything but then that flags them up. Some love it and start adding their own tabs and organising their way. I put all posts and files on Teams though and then the notebook is for the stuff I want to see from them.

Adriana González Velosa @adgonvel.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
This! And also- especially at the beginning of the year- I ask Ss to upload pictures of their hand written self marked exercises. Allows me to quickly scan quantity/quality of independent work. Some use OfficeLens to upload but mostly super easy with their phones- they’re better than me at the tech!

In #MathsToday #AlevelMaths we did a Maths treasure hunt. Someone posted on old Twitter a template some time ago. Nice hard questions for y13 revision. Self checking as you need to find the next clue- and soo nice to be outside! We are so lucky with our college grounds!

In #MathsToday #AlevelMaths Revision-I used @catrionaagg.bsky.social normal dist. completing tables- posted some time ago. Lots of sketches- no calculator- then we did conditional probability involving the normal-they found hard questions so much easier! Very grateful for what people share here!
