This site was designed for assisting secondary teachers and students in the teaching and use of technologies in a mathematics classroom. The goal was to find programs, websites, and other technologies that could be beneficial for both teaching and learning. While the focus has been strictly on secondary education, a quick glance and with some use of these technologies it is reasonable to suggest that many of these resources could span across grade levels- perhaps elementary or high school.
The first section of this site is entitled "Online Resources" and it contains an ongoing list of technological resources that are available to mathematics teachers and students. With each resource listed is a small description of what the technology is all about, as well as a link to visit the resource. These are all resources that could potentially be useful in the classroom and deserve a closer look by visiting and trying the site links.
The second section of this site is entitled "Online Resources Evaluations" and it contains ten resources which have been evaluated in detail as to their usefulness, affordance, and relation to the NCTM Principles and Standards of Mathematics. These are sites that have had a critical analysis and offer more information about the technology than in the previous section.
Finally, on the sidebar of this website, the sites have been organized by labels as related to the NCTM Principles and Standards of Mathematics. Resources for a particular standard can easily be shown on one webpage by clicking on a given standard. Also included on the sidebar is quick link reference to each resource presented on this site, in alphabetical order. Each link will take you to a given resource.
Please feel free to leave any comments about any of the resources, evaluations, or this site in general. Any contributions (technologies that could be a worthwhile addition to the site) are welcomed.
