Master maths on the fx-CG50

Graphical calculators are the perfect fit for post 16 and secondary learning, and it’s why you’ll increasingly spot the fx-CG50 in A-Level maths classes and some GCSE’s.

Not only will you acquire key skills and gain confidence using the fx-CG50, our training session focuses on using the calculator for learning maths in an A-level topic. We’ll use applicable A-Level question demonstrations which you can use in your next class. Delivered by training experts who know the calculator inside out, we’ll teach you and up to four colleagues at a time of your choosing.

Sign up for training today and join the growing number of teachers and schools going graphic.

Understand relationships, patterns and rules

“Instead of looking for the abstract we can move onto graphical representations much quicker and it saves the students a lot of time too.”

Enable experimentation

“Students can explore a lot more. They can change variables easily and plot the graph to try to look at a relationship, then try it algebraically.”

Stretch understanding

“It lets them play around with it, and very quickly they get an answer to something that is maybe beyond their current skillset.”

What will I learn?

Designed by teachers for teachers, these sessions offer an introduction to the fx-CG50, making them particularly well-suited for teachers who have never used the calculator before or who have only minimal experience with it. If, for example, you’ve gone as far as drawing a graph but not much further in terms of analysis or exploration, this training is for you.

In its current form, our fx-CG50 training zeroes in on two key capabilities of the calculator that are essential for both you and your students: graphing and analysing functions, and solving equations numerically. These skills are explored within the context of a typical A-level equation, where you will learn how to utilise the fx-CG50’s SolveN functionality.

What else can I expect to gain from the session?

Our training sessions are designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how calculators can support you in your teaching and help students improve their understanding. We always try to demonstrate how you can use the calculator to approach example questions in a couple of different ways.

Can I ask questions?

Absolutely! The training sessions are fully interactive and we actively encourage participants to ask questions and request clarification when they need it. The sessions take place in relatively small groups – no more than ten people – to ensure everyone can make their voice heard.

Engage students

Keep them more engaged by enabling them to change the questions and explore what happens when elements are altered.

Everyone learns at their own pace

Don’t tie maths lessons to ‘when the computer room is available’.

Improve results

In a test at Hamstead Hall Academy, one student achieved 10 more marks with the fx-CG50 than they achieved without it – a huge difference that could lead to a higher grade.
