This is done by the folks at the
Computer Research and Applications Group at Los Alamos National
Laboratory. I didn't go real far with it but what I saw looks
interesting, especially
Welcome to the Hotel Infinity!
This is a
great compilation of books, sites, videos and computer software
regarding math from a great homeschool Mom, Karen Gibson.
Enjoy.This was posted to another list - since a couple of our
favorite math sites are on it, I thought this group might be
interested.
The MathCounts website.
Great program for competitive math. Austin's group has won
several state and national titles.
Welcome To Rick Schauer's Math Pages,
an entire K-12 math curriculum that's open for free to everyone but
geared toward special education learners with math disabilities and
to learners preparing for the State of Minnesota 8th Grade Basic
Standards Test. As of October 26, 1999, there are over 4,600
math problems here for learners pre-kindergarten to high school who
need help learning to count, write numbers, understand place value,
addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, prime numbers,
composite numbers, least common multiples, greatest common factors,
factoring whole numbers and * NEW * fractions. This includes:
Tips and Tricks for learning different math operations and
supporting worksheets for practice.
I did a search in Yahoo for "Math Symbols" and this has
great history
of the symbols and how they became in use.
Swarthmore University runs a web site called
The Math Forum which has the greatest set of math education
links I have seen
in one place.
My favorite math site is the
2+2=4 Mathematically
Correct website. It tells you what kind of math
instruction to avoid in addition to explaining math instruction that
works!

This is a site put together by Michael Lloyd, a colleague, good
friend and really nice Christian guy. In addition to that he is one
of the best calculator programmers in the world. In fact, you don't
have to take my word for that. Texas Instruments links to Michael's
