Even preschool shows are at it! P eppa pig has reference to the quadratic equation and Ben and Holly’s wise old elf uses the golden ratio! Do let me know if you spot any more. Perhaps more surpringly is the fact that Disney snuck pi into Mary Poppins and there is clearly a maths enthusiast at Universal Pictures who worked on Despicable Me to include the vector character.
#FUNNY VECTOR DESPICABLE ME SERIAL#
The Big Bang Theory is, quite unsurprisingly, the show which keeps on giving, from Thursdays episode which included the mechanics of cow tipping, through topological problems like which cinema to go to to modelling examples, like when Sheldon extrapolated data on Penny’s serial history while on his first date with Amy. Dr Who has plenty of maths, including happy primes and Fermat’s last theorem. The world of entertainment certainly seems to have strong links to maths, the Simpsons and Futurama have for years included maths, which is cool in itself and I think should give plenty of things to use in lessons. And videos like this work better than any mnemonic for embedding knowledge and ideas into the teenage memory banks. Vector (born Victor Perkins November 14, 1994) is the secondary antagonist of the franchise, serving as the main antagonist of Illumination's first feature film Despicable Me and its video game prequel Despicable Me: The Game, one of the two unseen overarching antagonists of Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem (along with Eduardo Perez), one of the two unseen overarching antagonists of Despicable Me. Whether one should be trying to teach or to entertain, but I don’t see why you can’t do both, as long as the entertainment adds to, rather than detracts from, the learning. There is plenty of debate around gimmicks and teaching methods. Videos like these are funny and memorable, and can help to embed the knowledge of vectors into the minds of pupils, thus enabling them to recall the knowledge better in an exam. I had seen the film before, but a few years ago and I had completely forgotten about this character! It is certainly a clip I will share with students in future! (Along with this classic.) Find Funny GIFs, Cute GIFs, Reaction GIFs and more. That’s why vector on despicable me chose his name, because he’s committing crime with direction and magnitude!” See this clip.

It had been a while since they had met vectors, so I asked what they remembered about them and one said: “direction and magnitude, they have direction and magnitude.
This week I have been teaching my year 13s about vectors.
