RAF Maths Challenge

collegeuser — Mon, 23 May 2011 10:40:08 +0000

Aughnacloy College hosted the RAF Maths Challenge on Friday 20th May in an attempt to make maths more exciting and demonstrate its relevance in the workplace. It was an outstanding success with all year 10 pupils taking part in a lesson of practical Maths.
Sergeant Darren Kiragan and Corporal John Carberry set up a variety of tasks for the pupils who were working in teams of six, in the context of RAF scenarios showing the importance of maths in RAF life. The hands-on curriculum linked activities, which were all strictly timed, included calculating the cooking times of different foods, loading various cargo shapes of different sizes into a cargo hold, examining security systems and plotting co-ordinates to arrange the flight plan for an important mission.
These activities not only gave the pupils practical examples of how Maths is used in everyday life but also gave opportunities to work on problem solving, communication and team work skills.

A selection of photos from the match can be viewed in our gallery.
