Mathematics illuminates the patterns that abound in our world. The Museum of Mathematics strives to enhance public understanding and perception of mathematics. Its dynamic exhibits and programs will stimulate inquiry, spark curiosity, and reveal the wonders of mathematics. The museum's activities will lead a broad and diverse audience to understand the evolving, creative, human, and aesthetic nature of mathematics.

created by NCTM - Calculation Nation™ uses the power of the Web to let students challenge opponents from anywhere in the world. At the same time, students are able to challenge themselves by investigating significant mathematical content and practicing fundamental skills. The element of competition adds an extra layer of excitement. "The games on Calculation Nation™ provide an entertaining environment where students can explore rich mathematics," said Jim Rubillo, Executive Director of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). "Through these games, students are exposed to the same mathematical topics that they see in class as well as those that are recommended in Curriculum Focal Points."

The idea behind Maths is Fun is to offer mathematics content as well as some fun and combining the two wherever possible. Mostly basic content on here, but most basic math content can be integrated into more complex secondary mathematics subjects.

MathCast is an equation editor, an application that allows you to input mathematical equations. These equations can be used in written documents, webpages, and even databases. They could be rendered graphically to the screen or to picture files. MathCast can be used freely by anyone: students can create equation sheets to help them in their studies, educators can write handouts or study guides, webmasters can add mathematics to their website, and the list goes on and on.

Teaching math through culture.

Many cultural designs are based on mathematical principles. This software will help students learn standards-based mathematics as they simulate the original artifacts, and develop their own creations.

Lure of the Labyrinth is a digital game for middle-school pre-algebra students. It includes a wealth of intriguing math-based puzzles wrapped into an exciting narrative game in which students work to find their lost pet - and save the world from monsters! Linked to both national and state mathematics standards, the game gives students a chance to actually think like mathematicians.
