Continuous compoundingInterest earned on an investment, or due on a loan, is usually compounded. On occasions, interest is compounded continuously, which has the effect of increasing the amount of interest.
Cubic equationsThis booklet explains what is meant by a cubic equation and discusses the nature of the roots of cubic equations.
It explains a process called synthetic division which can be used to locate further roots when one root is known.
The graphical solution of cubic equations is also described.
Developing a statistical advisory service through effective partnershipsStatistical Advisory Services are an innovative and valued approach to providing statistical advice centrally to final year undergraduate and postgraduate students. This paper reflects on the experiences of a new UK university in developing such a service through a HE STEM Practice Transfer Adopters partnership project. The Projectâ??s adopted strategies to partner with other university stakeholders are evaluated. In particular, partnerships with faculty- based staff and running staff development training courses are identified as effective development strategies.

Developing the Interface between Engineering and Mathematics at Edinburgh UniversityA few years ago the department of mathematics at Edinburgh looked at the problem of interfacing between mathematics and engineering courses and came up with a system to enable greater student understanding. The implementation of this system and how it is helping students is reviewed in this case study.
Diagnostic Testing and Student SupportStudents on Engineering awards at UWE come from a range of academic backgrounds that include A2/AS-Level, B-TEC, Foundation year, overseas qualifications and mature students who in some cases are returning to education after an absence of over ten years. Ensuring that individuals from such a diverse population can develop the necessary mathematical skills and knowledge to cope with the demands of an Engineering award is clearly difficult. In this case study we describe the development of diagnostic testing at UWE and its role in a strategy for teaching mathematics to a large mixed ability group.
Diagnostic Testing within Institutions - Anglia Polytechnic UniversityThe Department of Mathematics, Physics and Electronics (School of Applied Sciences Anglia Polytechnic University, Cambridge) uses DIAGNOSYS to administer a computer-based diagnostic test, testing the mathematical knowledge of primarily foundation year students.
