"David Cox sent his students through Function Carnival where they tried to graph the motion of different carnival rides. (Try it!) Every student's initial graph was wrong. No one got it exactly right the first time. But Function Carnival doesn't display a percent score or hint tokens or some kind of Bayesian probability they'll get the next graph right. It just shows students what their graph means for that ride. Then it lets them revise."

Web-based screen recorder. Create and share screencasts on the web. Nothing to install or download. PC and MAC Maybe for some little flipped class-type activities that students want to create.

"I'm a high-school math teacher completely frustrated with new math, reform math, fuzzy math, the color of math, talking about math, literacy across the curriculum and all those other things that get in the way of students actually learning math, not to mention the ever-present "You need to help raise our scores by taking one day a week to go over test-taking skills" and other administrative folderol."

A free, flexible, nine-week online course that will allow K-16 educators to learn about how deeper learning can be put into practice. Might be interesting to pop into.

We start at the beginning of the chapter with introducing the project and having the kids break up into groups of 3 and 4 and start designing and building a catapult outside of school. "
