Great site that has a ton of math videos produced by a great teacher at SLA (Science Leadership Academy). It is all teacher tube videos.

There's a lot of anecdotal stuff online about the myths of teaching/learning math. These "Twelve Math Myths" seem to come up again and again.

Welcome to MyCalculus - the place to solve YOUR calculus problems!

The boundaries of human presence on Earth. Also, how long it takes you to boil an egg at the top of Everest. Good to know!

The Common Core State Standards focus on core conceptual understandings and procedures starting in the early grades, thus enabling teachers to take the time needed to teach core concepts and procedures well-and to give students the opportunity to master them.

Math videos to help explain skills/concepts. Tends to be very skill based, but offers multiple takes on the same skill so if a students doesn't get it from one person the next might be a better fit, short videos makes it plausible that a student might use, GREAT integration of vocabulary. Well worth incorporating into classroom practice to help students understand how to use formulas or manipulate equations. Also they are GREAT models if you want kids to create their own.

"Computing Technology for Math Excellence is devoted to resources for teaching and learning mathematics (K-12 and calculus), technology integration, and the standards movement in education."

A conference scheduled for July 20-21, 2011 in Bertinoro, Italy, aims at formulating strategies for a comprehensive digital mathematics literature library, addressing such considerations as algorithms, standards, technology, formats, markup languages, interoperability and publishing models.

Hungarian folk dance used to demonstrate computational sorting algorithms, from Sapientia Univeristy in Romania

This is highly awesome! Computer science concepts are fun to play with, and dance is a great way to share this one. Reminds me of a TRIZ method.
