Communicating Mathematics

Launched in October 2024, the Communicating Mathematics was co-created by Warwick students with Maths department staff and has been specifically designed to give students training in public engagement in mathematics, and opportunities to put these new skills into practice.

Over the course of the module, students create a piece of written content, and video/audio content about a mathematical topic of their choosing. They also help organise and deliver a public engagement event. More details about the module are available on the University's module catalogue.

This page gathers together all of the work created by our students on this module and is available for you to explore, share and use. If you do use it, please ensure you attribute the work accordingly.
