My best advice is to keep it simple and visualise what you're being asked to do. You can sketch an argand diagram if it helps. Sub in k=0, k=1, 2, etc. and adjust for the right range afterwards rather than worrying about negative k values.
Is there a specific bit of the topic you're not happy with?

I did the 5k parkrun near me today and had very little left in the tank by the end. Consequently, missed the funnel and ended up adding 30 seconds to my time 😞

Yes, just search on TES for srwhitehouse and De Moivre. Top tip, change your printer settings to be grey scale and it prints beautifully, in the regular settings mine had a few font issues!

Do I need to keep asking Gemini to narrow the focus to be something that can be marked and suitable for both engaged and disengaged learners?

I asked Gemini... Oh the irony

I really don't know, but is it better than a) using AI and cheating, b) not doing anything? Maybe giving them the opportunity for success might be sufficient. I think with all homework, don't let perfect be the enemy of good

I haven't fully thought this through, but would flipped learning be a useful replacement? I don't know exactly how, but the homework would have to be something that has use without being able to be cheated

Maybe

Indeed. It's always interesting to see the big picture as often our own experiences don't reflect the norm

Oh my goodness! My small sample of local schools and online tutees must be very skewed. Thanks for this. Really interesting

No worries. I'm finding more and more schools do OCR. Maybe I'll have to start making "best guess" predicted papers next year 😁

Hi. Did you find anything? I'm in exactly the same boat. 🫤

I use hand gestures to represent the brackets if my audience is able to see me! 🤣

I think I got the last one on Amazon. It was £5 😬🫣 Sorry

We're a shadow of what we were. But, I am hopeful that things will improve in the minutes, hours, days, weeks to come

Thank you. For a fiver, I've ordered it 😍
Can't wait to use some of these belters in class 😂
