    The van Hiele levels have five properties: 1. Fixed sequence: the levels are hierarchical.Students cannot "skip" a level. [5] The van Hieles claim that much of the difficulty experienced by geometry students is due to being taught at the Deduction level when they have not yet achieved the Abstraction level.

    AQA's syllabus is much more famous than Edexcel's, mainly for its controversial decision to award an A* with Distinction (A^), a grade higher than the maximum possible grade in any Level 2 qualification; it is known colloquially as a Super A* or A**. A new Additional Maths course from 2018 is OCR Level 3 FSMQ: Additional Maths (6993). [6]

  4. Continuous-time random walk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous-time_random_walk

    In mathematics, a continuous-time random walk (CTRW) is a generalization of a random walk where the wandering particle waits for a random time between jumps. It is a stochastic jump process with arbitrary distributions of jump lengths and waiting times. [1] [2] [3] More generally it can be seen to be a special case of a Markov renewal process.

    In asymptotic analysis in general, one sequence () that converges to a limit is said to asymptotically converge to with a faster order of convergence than another sequence () that converges to in a shared metric space with distance metric | |, such as the real numbers or complex numbers with the ordinary absolute difference metrics, if

    This is why a major target of the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 4 is to substantially increase the number of youths who have relevant skills for decent work and employment [31] because, even outside these specialized areas, the lack of numeracy skills can reduce employment opportunities and promotions, resulting in unskilled manual careers ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Further_Mathematics

    A qualification in Further Mathematics involves studying both pure and applied modules. Whilst the pure modules (formerly known as Pure 4–6 or Core 4–6, now known as Further Pure 1–3, where 4 exists for the AQA board) build on knowledge from the core mathematics modules, the applied modules may start from first principles.
