Resource type Table of derivatives
This leaflet provides a table of common functions and their derivatives. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.2)
Resource type Table of derivatives
This leaflet provides a table of common functions and their derivatives, and the opportunity to practice using it.
Resource type Table of integrals
This leaflet provides a table of integrals of common functions. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.7)
Resource type Tangents and Normals
This unit explains how differentiation can be used to calculate the equations of the tangent and normal to a curve. The tangent is a straight line which just touches the curve at a given point. The normal is a straight line which is perpendicular to the tangent.

Resource type Teaching Mathematics to First Year Undergraduate Chemists in the Context of their Discipline
New 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.
Resource type Teaching Problem-solving in Undergraduate Mathematics
The purpose of this Guide is to argue the case for putting problem-solving at the heart of a mathematics degree; for giving students a flavour, according to their capabilities, of what it is to be a mathematician; a taste for rising to a mathematical challenge and overcoming it. Its purpose is also to make it easier for colleagues who share our vision to find ways of realising it in their own teaching. This book was edited by Matthew Badger, Chris Sangwin and Trevor Hawkes.

Resource type Teaching Students to Write Mathematics: video and other resources
Teaching students to write mathematics correctly is often neglected part of a mathematics degree. A workshop was convened by Kevin Houston to consider approaches to teaching this topic. A DVD was produced with videos of talks by Kevin Houston (University of Leeds), Franco Vivaldi (Queen Mary, University of London) and Mike Robinson (Sheffield Hallam University), along with further reading and sample teaching resources. At this website you can download and burn your own DVD or view the videos and other materials online. This website is not made available under a Creative Commons licence.
Resource type The Geometry of a Circle - Part 3
IPOD VIDEO: In this unit we find the equation of a circle, when we are told its centre and its radius. There are two different forms of the equation, and you should be able to recognise both of them. We also look at some problems involving tangents to circles.
