Life By the Numbers

‘Why do I have to study this stuff anyway? I’m never going to need it after I leave school.’ How often have your students made comments along these lines? This two hour DVD presents highlights of a major series from the USA. It contains 13 modules illustrating the crucial role that mathematics plays in sport, work, education, exploration, chance, technology, and life in general. A real opportunity to help you answer the question above in ways that will make sense to your students. Not an answer by itself, but Life by the Numbers will provide schools with a valuable resource to make the study of mathematics more engaging and relevant to young people today.
