Why am I always doing this same gesture whenever a photograph is taken of me during a presentation? Every single time! 😂

Was fantastic to have @Alan_Walker_UWS today doing 2 talks, careers in mathematics to the seniors & the Golden Ratio to S2. We really appreciated him coming along @sanquharacademy for @MathsScot week. The pupils really enjoyed it as did the staff! 🙏🏻

Delighted to spend the day with our Mathematics with Education graduates. Can't wait to see how their careers in education develop. This is the highlight of the year, and these students (who started during Covid lockdown) deserve every plaudit they receive, and more.

We’ve had a number of enquiries lately from people worried about having a bumblebee ‘hive’ in their garden. ‘Are they dangerous?’ ‘Should I have them removed?’ ‘Will they be there forever?’ Here’s a quick bumblebee lifecycle thread to explain. Please #retweet for the #bees. 1/14

It was a real honour to be able to announce this award and present (not prevent, as I said in my appreciation!) it to Chris this morning. An inspiration and tremendous force for good in Scottish Mathematics!

I was lucky to witness four wonderful workshops covering a wide range of thought-provoking subjects and have left with plenty to action next week. But for now, enjoy your weekend all!

Worked solutions to 19 of the questions from last Friday's National 5 Maths papers have now been added to https://t.co/tpO9yyGC7w. Other questions that require graphics from the paper will be added in the autumn, once SQA publish the question papers. https://t.co/r9YU6RMyI8

For all @UWS_Mathematics Mathematics with Education students, this is a great opportunity to learn about current practice and pedagogy from teachers across the county. Don't miss out on @jamesgrime giving the opening plenary too - a fantastic speaker!
