Calculus on the Web provides Pre-calculus, Calculus, and Algebra problems for visitors to solve. Click on a math book to choose your course. Each book is divided into chapters and sections. View the entire index by clicking the "index" button. Click on the topic buttons to enter each section. Students do not need to log in to use the practice problems. Only students enrolled in a COW-registered class can log in to record their progress. Problems are color coded to show difficulty. Blue has a difficulty level of easy, purple is slightly more difficult, and red is difficult. A sample problem is given and then students are provided with additional problems to solve using traditional means with a calculator. Clicking "check your answer" will provide you a right or wrong response. There are unlimited tries if the answer is wrong. Hints for typing in formulas are given.

This site is older and does not use animation or graphics. Though the interface is older, students may find it easier to navigate. The problems are pretty straight forward, and they are not timed during problem-solving.

In the Classroom

Teachers can use these problems as an introduction that bridges older material to new material being introduced. Students can use the approach of solving the problems without being instructed in order to develop the rules that would be needed to solve the problem. These problems can also be assigned as enrichment or extra practice. Basic functions are covered in the modules and would be an enhancement to a math course.

AP Biology teachers will love these downloadable, advanced mathematical models (Excel and other) for many biology concepts in ecology, botany, genetics, biochemistry, and more. Created for college classrooms, the models are quite sophisticated and may be best used by advanced students or as a whole-class activity. These models provide real-world application of mathemetical and scientific concepts that are certain to excite budding scientists. The desciptions include computer software specifications for successful use. Some examples of applications include: a model for biogeography and the impact of mainland species pool, area of the island, and distance of the island from the mainland on the species available on the island; a 3D mathematical model of various factors' impact on the growth of tree branches; and a worksheet that simulates the population growth of two interacting species

tag(s): ecology (99), environment (238), modeling (8), species (15), statistics (114)

In the Classroom

Teachers eager to spread enthusiasm for true scientific inquiry and use of mathematical tools in the sciences may want to select one of these tools to extend their regular curriculum. Share it on a projector so students are not overwhelmed with the college-level material at first.

If you are ready for some hands-on technology in your math class, try this collection of lesson ideas for using TI calculators(or TI SMARTview on an interactive whiteboard). Requires graphing calculator(s). The site is plain-vanilla, but the content is good. Most activities include both student sheets and also Teacher Notes and Explanations. Includes most high school math subjects and many middle school, as well. Even includes problem-solving strategies. The activities are separated by calculator model, so you can be certain you have an activity that works on your calculators. This collection was created by a high school/college teacher in Ohio, not Texas Instruments.

This math site is filled with interactive demonstrations that address a huge array of math concepts - from the most basic early elementary skills to algebra, trigonometry, and calculus. Select a topic or age group and then browse through the offerings. "Math for Everyone," an especially useful link for older students, offers authentic math problems related to figuring out tips, simple and compound interest, and the cost of electricity. Beware of the "Ask an Expert" feature - a fee is involved in receiving a solution, but past questions and answers can be viewed free of charge.

Each graphic is accompanied by an overview and description.

tag(s): pi (26)

In the Classroom

Use your projector or whiteboard to go over the graphics and concepts on this Calculus site. Then extend and modify learning by asking students to choose a graphic to upload (with proper credit, of course) to Google Drawings, reviewed here, to demonstrate understanding of the concept, Google Drawings allows you to annotate an image with links to videos, text, websites, and more. Not familiar with Google Drawings? Watch an archived OK2Ask session to learn how to use: OK2Ask Google Drawings, here.

Here's an unusually complete online calculus resource. It includes step-by-step presentation text, written in conversational style, along with a toolkit of interactive calculators and graphing resources. Add to that an e-mail based Q&A feature and the site becomes a sort of one-stop shopping for online calculus instruction.

tag(s): equations (119)

In the Classroom

The site could supplement a secondary course, or it could be used for individual study in situations where a face-to-face class is not available.

Despite its awkward subtitles, this site offers concise, amply illustrated presentations on algebra, trigonometry, and other branches of mathematics. Teachers may find this site useful when they need a perspective that's different from their usual text. Students can use the information in the same manner, as another explanation when they're stumped by the textbook, although there's no real search feature. Well worth a look.

Developed by a faculty member at Georgia Southern University with support from the National Science Foundation, this site offers a collection of demonstrations for precalculus, calculus, and post-calculus students using a variety of tools and media. None of these appears to require specialized equipment, and their utility will depend on their "fit" with individual curricula. Secondary math teachers may well find useful tools here.
