CTAP Region IV's Middle School Math Project is a series of web pages providing links to technology resources for classroom teachers and coaches to improve teaching and learning of middle school mathematics, including Algebra One. The use of technology tools and electronic resources in the math classroom seem like such a natural fit but finding appropriate applications of technology has always been a challenge in the K-12 classroom. We know that our students need technological skills to succeed in the 21st century and the ability to apply the key concepts outlined in our state math standards. CTAP Region IV is making connections between math and technology through our Middle School Math Project.
