I've voted for Howie because it has some actual maths, and isn't just talking *about* maths. The current voting suggests I'm in the minority. It's the Quarter-Final ... how are you going to vote? aperiodical.com/2024/07/the-bi… (Retweets for reach and awareness would be very welcome)

In the The Aperiodical's Big Internet Math-Off, today's round features Howie Hua explaining an absolute classic magic effect with some algebraic maths. aperiodical.com/2024/07/the-bi… It featured in the Standards Unit years ago as an example of using algebra: mrbartonmaths.com/resources/stan…

Thanks to many of you last week, I made it to the next round of The Big Internet Math-Off. In Round 2, I'm already down by over 200 votes so if any of you want to vote, that would be wonderful! Here, I share my FAVORITE mental math trick: aperiodical.com/2024/07/the-bi…

Many reasons why I might ditch this place. Not least the most mundane and irritating auto-selection-and-playing-of-an-apparently-random-video after I've watched something I was actually interested in...(anyone found how to switch it off?) Cerulean version Ben Sparks.bsky.social

This year is our TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY! To celebrate, we're producing a little book full of anecdotes, photos and stats. Please share your stories with us if you're a teacher or former pupil who attended a show, especially if they're funny! Send to [email protected]

Welcome back schools! Maths teachers, if you're looking for a talk or workshop for this year, get it touch, it's easy to ask and I'm not rubbish. See jamesgrime.com for details.

@sparxmaths I should have tagged you in on this tweet. There are a lot of concerns.

Applications for the next round of LMS Education Grants are open! Two grant schemes are available - one to help fund maths activities for from KS1 up to undergrad, and one for organisers of regular mathematical conferences. Deadline: 30 Nov ➡️ lms.ac.uk/grants/educati…

Would you like me to run a maths workshop or talk at your school in 2025? The London Mathematical Society has grants available to help fund mathematical enrichment and communication. Get in touch if you'd like to discuss options! lms.ac.uk/grants/small-g…

IMPORTANT PLS SHARE. It's rumoured the English £9,250 tuition fee cap may be raised this pm for the 1st time in 8yrs, as University's finances are strained. As student finance misunderstandings abound, I've bashed out a few notes to help... 1. Higher tuition fees WON'T change
