A video that uses production of the car, Mini, in Britain to reinforce math concepts like, ratio (lots of examples but one car every two minutes, or one in four cars are convertables), shapes used in production. Can be split into small segments.

A simulation of the stock market. A great running application to use in algebra classes, as it allows students to use algebraic concepts to manage their portfolio. Not directly skill or concept related, but can utilize graphing, formula use (as simple as P/E ratio, to regression analysis, to derivatives). For those teachers who think a little outside the box. I would be glad to hear how others might envision using this in their classroom.

Great site for having students calculate some proportions and develop proportional reasoning from a variety of contexts. Based in KY but can still connect to many students.
