“Do maths in the real world” is the cry. It adds meaning, relevance, and challenge, they say. Sounds good in theory – but what if I don’t like excursions? Video is a great way of taking our students to the interesting real-world places, without leaving the classroom (and filling out a bunch of risk assessments). The rugby field, where a conversion kick is being attempted, is one such place (wrong code, I know, but can’t be helped). This workshop will share a video treatment of the “rugby kick” problem, a lovely piece of applied right-angled trigonometry and includes ‘teacher edition’ notes and all you need for a great lesson, or a nice little assessment task.
