******* 6TH FORM MATHS LECTURE DAY - MANCHESTER - DEC 10TH *******
There are still places avilable for a fantastic day of maths lectures
for sixth formers at Manchester University on 10th December. The
famous author and broadcaster, Simon Singh will be talking about
codes and code breaking and demonstrating a genuine World War II
Enigma cipher machine, while the brilliant Rob Eastaway will be
giving his 'Guide to Impure Maths' and the entertaining Colin Wright
will be explaining the 'Theory and Practice of Juggling'. The aim of
the event, organised in conjunction with the Institute of Mathematics
and its Applications (IMA), is to prove that maths does
have a life beyond A Levels. If you are a teacher and would like to
bring a group of students, then more information and a booking form
can be found at the IMA web site:
