Offering Training to Postgraduates who Tutor in Mathematics Support CentresTony Croft, Shazia Ahmed, Verity Aiken, Leslie Fletcher, Michael Grove, Andrew Mead, Chetna Patel, and Robert Wilson: (2013) Offering Training to Postgraduates who Tutor in Mathematics Support Centres. MSOR Connections 13(1), 3-7. DOI: 10.11120/msor.2013.13010003
This report summarises the deliberations which took place during a workshop held to discuss issues to consider when recruiting and training postgraduates to work in mathematics support centres. It distils the current wisdom of a group of mathematics support professionals with experience of managing and tutoring in mathematics support centres. There exists an active national network (the sigma network) for those involved in university mathematics and statistics support; this report concludes by identifying how members of the higher education community may participate in this network.
Open Learning Resource Centre at the University of HuddersfieldThe Open Learning Resource Centre (OLRC) at the School of Computing and Mathematics, University of Huddersfield provides a quiet environment with seated study places for up to sixty students. The Centre originally operated from 8.30am to 4.30pm every day but that has now been extended to cater for the needs of part-time students. Every day a tutor provides a surgery on a one-to-one basis to answer questions posed in mathematics, statistics or operational research (MSOR). It was also commended by the QAA Visiting Panel during a recent Teaching Quality Assessment.

Parametric differentiationThis unit explains how to differentiate a function defined parametrically.
Parametric differentiationInstead of a function y(x) being defined explicitly in terms of the independent variable x, it is sometimes useful to
define both x and y in terms of a third variable, t say, known as a parameter. In this unit we explain how such
functions can be differentiated using a process known as parametric differentiation. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)
