Resource type Piloting an online mathematics and statistics tutoring service
Pettigrew, J., & Shearman, (2014) D. Piloting an online mathematics and statistics tutoring service. 30th ascilite Conference 2013 Proceedings, http://ascilite.org.au/conferences/sydney13/program/papers/Pettigrew.pdf. In early 2013 the Mathematics Education Support Hub at the University of Western Sydney launched a tutoring service to support students’ mathematical and statistical learning in an online environment. Until the end of its pilot implementation in mid 2013, the service operated at all times as a moderated question and answer forum located within the University’s Learning Management System (a version of Blackboard Learn known as vUWS). It also featured a ‘virtual classroom’, which allowed students to interact with mathematics and statistics support staff in a web conferencing space equipped with a wide range of digital communication tools. This paper refers to the service as it was offered in discussing a range of general issues and questions associated with its pilot implementation. Particular attention is given to the issues of pedagogy in a purely online teaching and learning context and communicating asynchronously and synchronously using mathematical language and notation.
Resource type Polar co-ordinates
The (x, y) co-ordinates of a point in the plane are called its Cartesian co-ordinates. But there is another way to specify the position of a point, and that is to use polar co-ordinates (r, theta). In this unit we explain how to convert from Cartesian co-ordinates to polar co-ordinates, and back again.

Resource type Predicting Performance of first year engineering students and the importance of assessment tools therein
This research paper by Lee, Harrison, Pell and Robinson presents statistical regression models which aim to predict overall first year mechanical engineering students' performance. Data was collected on overall first year mark against 14 variables. The regression models produced showed the positive effect of almost one grade boundary of students visiting the mathematics learning support centre. The paper is published in Engineering Education, 2008, 3(1), 44-51. DOI: 10.11120/ened.2008.03010044
