Averages

Description

This maths masterclass explores practical ways of teaching averages in a series of practical examples of everyday problems. The programme shows how the mean, median, mode and range of a set of numbers can be both helpful and misleading in understanding sets of data. The objective is to enthuse teachers and teach students using situations that are easy and practical to set up in a school classroom. Jonny Heeley's talent lies in empowering the students and encouraging them to express their thoughts and ideas out loud as they work together towards an understanding of the maths.
