Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

OS, erm, nothing exciting,..., the teaching and learning of post-16 mathematics. I was (studying) in Boycie's department...

Barky, no that would be silly, I go by my proper name in real life ;-)

that's quite interesting to me

did you get to delve into lots of psychology of learning and stuff like that?
did it get you a proper job or do you just do pest control, like me?

No, not too much social science stuff, more analysing what affects constant changes in subject content had on university students knowledge upon entry. You could say I got a relevant job, I work for an independent curriculum development body who write GCSE and A level maths specifications and exams...

* waits for the deluge of 'I was never good at maths' :-) *

I did say independent curriculum development body (maybe should have added 'charitable'), I definitely didn't say money grabbing *%!* business... I'll not say anymore
