A Ways & Choices worksheet on making decisions. (Getting a job and Apprenticeships).

<p>PowerPoints to teach the full A Level Further Maths Decision Maths D2 course (Edexcel)</p> <p>The set of 8 PowerPoints contains complete, step-by-step instructions and A Level standard examples. These may be used for both teaching and for student revision.<br /> Decision Maths is a module that lends itself to PowerPoint instruction – networks grow and develop as information is added, and these PowerPoints model this in real time.<br /> Having developed these as a teaching resource, I find the course can be taught in a substantially reduced time, leaving more time for consolidation and practice or for teaching other FM options. My students take no notes in class but, once taught, use the PowerPoints as reminders and revision as they practise. Most PowerPoints contain a handy flowchart for in-class prompts or for private revision. When used under the previous, modular, A Level specification, this module was consistently the highest-scoring module for my students.<br /> “S”, year 12, says: “I find these PowerPoints really visual – I can see what is happening. It makes the process of learning much quicker and easier to understand, and I like the fact that I can always go back and replay the lessons, which is helpful. I find them very useful for revision.”</p> <p>The full set of 8 PowerPoints consists of:<br /> Decision Analysis<br /> Dynamic programming<br /> Flows 1<br /> Flows 2<br /> Game Theory<br /> Hungarian Allocation Algorithm<br /> Recurrence Relations<br /> Transportation Algorithm</p> <p>Updated 2022</p>

After a few years of teaching sorting algorithms by creating and working through examples on the board I got sick of it and created these resources. They make it easy to introduce, work through some examples and then there is another worksheet full of examples for students to attempt where the fully-worked solutions are already done, making it easy to check. The printable worksheets mean that students don't need to copy down lists of numbers or create tables to work on - this means they can spend the time just practising using the algorithm.<br /> <br /> There is also the excel spreadsheet I created to generate examples - this can used to make as many more examples as you want (instructions are on the spreadsheet).

This is a set of lessons for Decision Mathematics. The resources include Powerpoints and worksheets. <br /> <br /> Powerpoint include:<br /> Learning objectives<br /> Examples animated at each step to support explanations and independent learning<br /> Important information written in red boxes to scaffold learning.<br /> <br /> Worksheets include examples on a word document for students to write on.<br /> <br /> Topics:<br /> Spanning Trees<br /> Linear Programming<br /> Dijkstra’s Algorithm<br /> Chinese Postman Problem<br /> Travelling Salesman Problem<br /> Matching<br /> Sorting<br /> Algorithms<br /> Graph Theory <br /> <br /> I hope you enjoy these lessons, where they can be used in the following ways:<br /> To deliver a course with reduced planning but not reducing quality of the lesson, as this course can be time consuming writing and preparing examples, where this resource can help.<br /> As a basis for an observation lesson to save time preparing resources.<br /> To give to students for out of lesson learning.<br /> To support teachers who are new to this topic, again to reduce planning time.

<p>This is a ready to teach lesson on how to implement the Simplex Algorithm and why it works, referring back to graphical and algebraic approaches. It is unclear to many students why the Simplex Algorithm works, what theta values are and why you need to look for the most negative value in the last row. The primary objective of this lesson is to thoroughly explain all of this.</p> <p>First, a simple problem is solved using normal linear programming, then this problem is solved using using the Simplex Algorithm, relating this back to what each and every step represents, both graphically and algebraically.</p> <p>The lesson is 35 PPT slides long, with tableaux for the students to work through at the same time.<br /> The lesson is provided in PPT, Notebook and PDF format.</p> <p>I will soon be uploading the next lesson for Simplex Algorithm so watch this space.</p> <p>If you have any suggestions or complaints about this resource, or a request for other resources, do not hesitate to contact me via <a href="mailto:lastminutemathslesson@gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">lastminutemathslesson@gmail.com</a>.</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p>Chris @ Last Minute Maths</p>

Fully animated powerpoint takes students slowly through the process of labelling the nodes and selecting which nodes will form part of the solution. The lesson resource is fully write-on and will only need printing (answers are included). There is another resource which covers more basic practice questions (with answers given).
