Dr Rebecca Taylor, Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Trent University

5 December 2007

Dr Rebecca Taylor is the Head of the Economics Division in NTU's Nottingham Business School and the Director of the HEFCE funded FDTL5 METAL project. This collaborative project has led to the development of several online resources which can be used to address the challenges associated with teaching mathematics to level 1 economics students. Resources include an online question bank, 50 video clips and 10 teaching and learning guides. The talk will give an overview of how the project developed and will demonstrate the resources in their current form.
