Video featuring Abby Brown, Math Teacher, Torrey Pines High School : ""Mathematica has changed how I think about teaching and how my students learn mathematics. The conversations in our classes focus so much more on concepts and ideas and understanding the mathematics rather than how do I solve the problem."

Conceived by Mathematica creator and scientist Stephen Wolfram as a way to bring computational exploration to the widest possible audience, the Wolfram Demonstrations Project is an open-code resource that uses dynamic computation to illuminate concepts in science, technology, mathematics, art, finance, and a remarkable range of other fields.\n\nIts daily-growing collection of interactive illustrations is created by Mathematica users from around the world, who participate by contributing innovative Demonstrations.

I wish we could add tags to other people's items without overwriting their authorship!

Steven, you shared a link and I wanted to add a tag to it. However, Diigo does not have a separate "add tag" function. The only way to add a new tag is to share the same link to the group, again. However, it overrides the author - now the link says "Shared by Maria Droujkova" even though you linked it first. I hope it makes sense. We discussed it with Darren when I first started to use Diigo Groups: http://groups.diigo.com/group/math-links/content/can-you-add-tags-to-other-people-s-bookmarks-959243

Hi Maria, thank you for the clarification. I now understand your first comment.

Heavy coding but wow effect!

"Estonia said it plans to adopt an innovative math curriculum developed by a UK-based group called Computer-Based Math. The effort is the brainchild of Conrad Wolfram, brother of Stephen Wolfram who cofounded Mathematica, a computational software program designed to help with project workflows in almost any industry. "

"Mathics is a free, general-purpose online computer algebra system featuring Mathematica-compatible syntax and functions. It is backed by highly extensible Python code, relying on SymPy for most mathematical tasks and, optionally, Sage for more advanced stuff. Get Python if you don't have it already (you probably have it if you're on Linux or a Mac)."
