Coming soon in September - a new structure and design for NRICH!
In September, we are launching a new site to make it easier for you to find problems that you are interested in, with a great new look and more frequently changing content. This page is to introduce the new site to you and answer some of the questions you might have.
Below is a screenshot of the new site, which will be launching in mid-September.
Read on for a description of the six regions of the new site indicated by the numbers on the screenshot.
The main part of the new Student Pages is the Current Feature. This is where you will find a group of resources based on a theme (problems, articles and games), similar to the monthly problems on the current site. The Current Feature will be updated regularly, so check back to see what's new!
There are links on the left side to groups of problems related to the Current Featured problems.
As well as the Current Feature, you can see the latest features in the carousel at the top of the page.
The navigation bar at the top of the page shows you whereabouts you are on the site (this screenshot is of the Lower Secondary Student page, aimed at Stage 3 and 4 students). Clicking the orange or red buttons takes you to the Primary pages, and clicking the dark blue button takes you to the Upper Secondary Student page, aimed at Stage 4 and 5 students. You can also access the STEM site and
AskNRICH.
In the upper right hand of the page is a link to collections of resources from the NRICH archives on a whole range of mathematical topics from the school curriculum, as well as collections designed to help you think strategically, work systematically and develop other important mathematical skills.
Below the collections is a list of trending items, which is filled with exciting goodies and updated every few days. Look out for links to problems that are open for solutions, and links to recently solved problems!
It's all changed, how will I find anything?
All of our problems from the archive will still be there, and any bookmarked links you have should still work. The site search at the top right hand corner will still be there, so you can find problems and games just as before. We hope that the new structure of collections and features will make it easier for you to find whatever interests you.
How do I know which region of the site is for me?
If you currently work on Stage 1 problems, you will find them in the orange section of the new site when it's launched. Stage 2 problems will be in the red section.
At secondary level, we have changed from having separate sections for Stage 3, 4 and 5 to having a Lower Secondary and an Upper Secondary student page. The Lower Secondary page will feature Stage 3 and 4 problems, and as soon as you are ready for a harder mathematical challenge you can move up to the Upper Secondary page where there will be more challenging Stage 4 and 5 problems.
I have a really important question about the new site that isn't answered here!
