This is the third of four badge activities.

Here’s a cross-number puzzle to give you some more practice using your calculator. It’s like a crossword puzzle, only with numbers instead of words.

Activity 10 – quiz

Comment

Well done if you have completed this activity – you now only have one more activity to do to gain your unit badge.

Now that you have had the chance to do some maths and see what it is like studying online, we’re going to think about how different this might be from the experience of learning in a classroom. We’ll also give you some tips and ideas about how to make the best use of the online learning environment. Before you move on to the next section, briefly consider what learning online has been like so far for you. Is there any aspect that you found more challenging than others? Is there anything that you particularly enjoyed?

To recap:

  • Remember to clear each calculation before you begin the next using C.
  • Watch the screen as you enter the calculation to make sure that it is correct.
