Module 4: IWM

Week Activity Skills

1 Outbreak Lab 1Detecting the location of infected people using

coordinates, three-figure bearings (radar) and Pythagoras’ theorem.

2 Outbreak Lab 2 Concocting antidotes tailored to symptoms using ratio division, fractional division and percentage calculations.

3 Outbreak Lab 3Calculating which groups of people should receive which antidote and justifying this in terms of the mathematical

considerations involved.

4 Alien Invasion Factfinding

Responding to an army request for support by analyzing and sorting a variety of graphs.

5 Alien Invasion Codebreaking

Cracking the alien mothership’s security code using the skill of detecting sequences.
