Online Math Pre-Assessment Workshop Video

We've prepared an online mathematics pre-assessment workshop video you can watch at the convenience of your own computer. The files are sizeable, so users on slower connections may prefer to download the entire workshop in one zip file (100 megabytes; 4-7 hrs on a dial-up connection, 2-24 mins on broadband) instead of viewing them here.
