Further information
"Students embarking on Advanced Subsidiary and
Advanced GCE study in Mathematics are expected to achieved at least Grade C in
GCSE Mathematics or equivalent, and to have covered all the material in the
Intermediate tier. In addition, students will be expected to be able to use the
material listed whenever it is required. This material, together with the GCSE
material, is regarded as assumed background knowledge. It will not be tested by
questions focussed directly on it. However, it may be assessed within questions
focussed on other material from the relevant specification."

A-Level Specifications
This online course will concentrate on those
aspects of the National Curriculum that are most important in enabling a
confident start to AS and A2 courses in Mathematics.
The course is
based on the list "Background knowledge" contained in all new A Level
specifications for September 2000 (AQA,
AEB,
OCR,
EdExcel) and draws from the Revised
National Curriculum for September 2000
(generally, those items unique to KS4 Higher).
Besides giving detailed
summaries of the content involved, this course also provides online interactive
practice in the key concepts. You must ensure your browser is set up
correctly for these interactive aspects. For more information about this, see
Tech.
Coded
A number of pages will provide a simple
code if the task on that page is completed. Once all the codes have been
completed, the student can go to the Coded page, enter these codes and
obtain a dated certificate to prove the work was done. Note that it is probably
quite easy for any "hacker" to obtain the the certificate falsely.
Version 2.0
Version 1 of this course was
written specifically for AngliaCampus and is available on that site. This version
includes extra interactive pages, particularly in section D, has a more unified
style and makes no use of any plug-ins. It also includes a number of Coded pages in sections B and D, which
provide the student with codes to use as evidence with their tutor of having
completed the tasks. |
