Classroom Resource: Topical Applications of Mathematics

This is a small but useful collection of classroom resources built around applications of mathematics from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching.

http://www.cimt.plymouth.ac.uk/resources/topical/

There are lesson plans and student handouts built around topics like Carbon Footprint, Popular Baby Names, Rankings in Sports, and Physical Fitness, among many others.

There are definitely some interesting ideas and resources here, to help bring these topics into your math classroom and to your students!
