Using the circular spotlight to emphasise where students should focus their attention when resolving forces.

@SamanthaTaghoy Haha poor maths

If you earn £120,000 a year in the UK, you keep just 29p of every pound you make. And it’s only getting worse under Labour. Higher taxes, more red tape, and endless punishment for anyone who dares to work hard, take risks, or build something of value. They talk about “fairness,” but what’s fair about pushing away talent, driving out investment, and leaving ordinary families with higher bills and fewer opportunities? What’s fair about squeezing small businesses until they fold, while politicians pat themselves on the back for “doing something”? The UK already has a productivity crisis, a skills shortage, and an investment drought — and instead of fixing the root cause, Labour doubles down on the same tired tax‑and‑spend dogma that’s been failing for decades. We’re becoming one of the worst places in the developed world to work, innovate, or raise a family. Success isn’t just unrewarded. It’s punished. But sure, let’s keep pretending envy is a strategy for growth. Let’s keep driving away anyone who actually creates jobs and prosperity. Let’s keep chanting “tax the rich.” And wonder why Britain is failing.

@ShakinthatChalk We did but I've seen first hand multiple occasions that it's being abused.

Did we vote in a Labour government ?

#BritainsGotTalent is KSI short for Keith Sullivan; Introvert?

@dani_hosford @ShakinthatChalk Somewhere in a classroom some students will be told to get into groups and discuss how they feel about a second order non homogeneous differential equation.

@anthhanson @ShakinthatChalk Also googled it. Do people teach in other ways? 😬

Another parent’s evening where I’m told I’m unique in my teaching style. The style of teaching that was the norm when I entered teaching. What in heavens sake have we done to teaching?

@ShakinthatChalk I see. Had to google that. But I get it, I'm much the same. How else is it supposed to be taught? Glad I work in a college where trad methods seem to be the norm

@anthhanson Explicit constructivist

@dylanwiliam found it, this ones the best series of video imo youtube.com/watch?v=8H8vkR…

In all the mathematics courses I took, in two undergraduate degrees and a Master's, I never learned anything about Galois theory, which those who know about it say is one of the most elegant topics in mathematics. So, any recommendations?

@dylanwiliam Galois theory is used to understand why the formula for a quintic doesnt exist. I understood it more when I could see it being used. This video is good. There is a better on with just a guy writing on paper, its in parts but I can find it. youtube.com/watch?v=9aUsTl…
