Volumes of solids of revolutionWe sometimes need to calculate the volume of a solid which can be obtained by
rotating a curve about the x-axis. There is a straightforward technique
which enables this to be done, using integration. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

First Order Ordinary Differential Equations (SOURCE)A zip file containing the LaTex source files and metatdata for the Teach Yourself resource First Order Differential Equations: A summary of five common methods to solve first order ODEs: direct integration, separation of variables, homogeneous equations, integrating factor and Bernouilli equations. This resource is contributed to the mathcentre Community Project by Morgiane Richard, University of Aberdeen and is reviewed by Shazia Ahmed, University of Glasgow.
Using the Graphics Calculator to Support Mathematics for Engineering StudentsFor first and second year engineering students at Napier University, the TI-83 graphics calculator plays a major role in an integrated technological approach to mathematics. This case study reviews the process of integration and its current position in the teaching of students.

Diagnostic Testing within Institutions - UMISTAll students are assessed using a paper-based written test on their first day in the department. The students are allowed to use any non-graphical calculator to help answer 48 questions of the type and standard that they should be familiar with from A-Level. The questions range across simple arithmetic and algebra through logs to differentiation and integration, finishing with some questions on vectors. Final solutions are filled in on an answer grid. The temporary streaming of the students is based on the results.
Teaching Mathematics to First Year Undergraduate Chemists in the Context of their DisciplineNew entrants to chemistry degree programmes are given a 24 hour course in mathematics if they do not have an A level qualification in the subject. This concentrates only on the skills necessary to successfully complete the first year physical chemistry course; these include simple statistics, functions, partial differentiation and integration. The course is taught using chemically relevant examples, in an order related to the chemistry course rather than traditional mathematics courses.
Ffeithiau a Fformiwlau EconomegThis is a Welsh language version of the Economics Facts & Formulae Leaflet. It is designed to be viewed onscreen or printed on A4 as a double-sided folded leaflet. Print quality is printer dependant. The leaflets were translated by Dr Tudur Davies, a Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol Lecturer of Mathematics, at the Institute of Mathematics, Physics & Computer Science, Aberystwyth University. Funding from the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol is gratefully acknowledged.
