Math Discrete 02 Prob Distn Table Special Cases Grade 12
This is a second simple example where many students misunderstand and make simple errors. Discrete Probability Distributions are covered in the many countries with Grade 12 students. This content specifically covers discrete data from a Table of Values.
After 40 years of enjoyable and rewarding teaching, I still love and continue to teach. It still amazes me how I continue to still think of better ways of teaching mathematical concepts and I also continue to discover methods of explaining things that help students 'better' understand and become more successful at remembering the concepts.
A word of warning from what I have repeatedly seen over the years - most of my videos are placed in a logical or reasonably sequential order and if you watch the first or second video in a playlist and feel comfortable with the concepts, please go to the last video in the playlist to check if you really are okay. Each video in a playlist usually becomes progressively more complex and the 'latter' or 'last' video will often contain common assessment questions where students are known to make errors.
I also often include some revision / consolidation / mixture videos in the playlist which I know are crucial to assist with student success in assessments.
I hope that you find this very helpful and a blessing in your studies.

Chihuahua disciplines his naughty brother for jumping over
My son caught this amazing moment on video. Why did one Chihuahua decide to 'discipline' his brother for continuing to jump over the restraints for trying to temporarily stop him from going into the garage?

Math Area 04 Circles
I created this video for and with some of my year 8 students. So many students struggle with 'remembering' how to get the area of circles.
Sorry about the visuals - I was experimenting with using a data projector, but I still decided to keep the video.
I also have playlists (videos in topics) on Youtube under Robert Prestwidge and many other videos.

Math Graphing Set B 05 Circle Equation Centre and Radius By Completing the Square Short Cut
Repeated revision and consolidation are so important to student success. This is a brief video in just repeating the basics of the Equation and details of graphing a circle. If they struggle with the Algebra involved with 'Completing the Square' it causes students to doubt their understanding. I have especially produced a separate video on 'Completing the Square' for this purpose.

My Aussie Best 01 Cattle Pool Mt Augustus Stunning View West Australia
Cattle Pool (Goolinee) is on the dirt road not far from Mt Augustus Tourist Park and near Mt Augustus (Burringurrah) about 1000km (600 miles) north of Perth. It has 6km (4 mile) walk to the top for stunning views of the area and various other walks. Cattle Pool is a very large permanent waterhole in the bed of the usually dry Lyons River up to about 3m (10 foot) deep at most. It was wonderful to swim in - warm on the top and nicely refreshing underneath, getting colder towards the bottom.

This contains further examples of how to solve 2 Simultaneous Equations using the 'Elimination Method' with more focus on some of the tricky cases where students commonly make errors.
From my experience, the biggest secret is to watch each video 3 times across a week or more (which very few people do with anything, not just Maths). I have tried to make this easier by keeping these videos quite brief.

People have been asking me to make very short videos - hence 'One Minute Videos'. It was interesting giving myself an absolute limit of one minute and the challenge was trying to find a balance between being able to go fast but not 'too fast'. It was a load of fun and it will be interesting to see how I develop with this.

The techniques of 'Cross Multiplication' is not known by many. It is very quick and easy to use, even with high-level Algebra. I have found it to be soo helpful for many students from those who are very weak at fractions, through to the very capable students.
