Turning to Calculus
Age 16 to 18
Challenge Level
Get started with calculus by exploring the connections between the sign of a curve and the sign of its gradient.
Calculus Analogies
Age 16 to 18
Challenge Level
Consider these analogies for helping to understand key concepts in calculus.
Fractional Calculus I
Age 16 to 18
You can differentiate and integrate n times but what if n is not a whole number? This generalisation of calculus was introduced and discussed on askNRICH by some school students.
Interactive Workout - Mathmo
Age 16 to 18 Short
Challenge Level
Mathmo is a revision tool for post-16 mathematics. It's great installed as a smartphone app, but it works well in pads and desktops and notebooks too. Give yourself a mathematical workout!

Power Up
Age 16 to 18
Challenge Level
Show without recourse to any calculating aid that 7^{1/2} + 7^{1/3} + 7^{1/4} < 7 and 4^{1/2} + 4^{1/3} + 4^{1/4} > 4 . Sketch the graph of f(x) = x^{1/2} + x^{1/3} + x^{1/4} -x
Erratic Quadratic
Age 16 to 18
Challenge Level
Can you find a quadratic equation which passes close to these points?
Fractional Calculus II
Age 16 to 18
Here explore some ideas of how the definitions and methods of calculus change if you integrate or differentiate n times when n is not a whole number.
Scientific Curves
Age 16 to 18
Challenge Level
