Using the Internet to Enhance Your Math Curriculum (K-12)/Semester Course

 

The Internet is full of wonderful math resources. In this course, you will learn where to find them. Comprehensive lists of sites will be provided, but time will also be spent helping you develop effective search strategies so that you may find quality resources on your own. You will also learn how to evaluate the content of sites you find. You will have the opportunity to revise existing lesson plans, thematic units, and activities to incorporate online resources and references.

"I thought the content of the course was very helpful and practical. I was able to apply lessons I learned in my classroom the very next day. I was very impressed with all the wonderful websites provided." - Jennifer Stevens
