Here is a more friendly version of Wolfram Alpha, essentially the google of math. Students can get step by step instructions on problem solving... this could act as an at home tutor. It is a sign up site, but it looks like this is free for teachers...not sure if there is a cost for students.

Anthony DiLaura on 15 Mar 11

This blog post links to some video lessons for AP calc classes. It also refers to Karl Fisch's youtube lessons and the increasingly popular Khan Academy app lessons. What is interesting is the idea of using the video lessons as assigned homework (watching taking notes- i.e. lecture) while the class time becomes strictly problem solving work and project based learning. I am really fond of this idea and would be interested to see what the rest of your thoughts and comments are.

This video was introduced to me by Sara Karsten. An engaging and funny talk that points to the failures/downfalls of math instruction/curriculum. Does Dan Meyer's claims about how we teach have truth? How does this reflection challenge our instruction?

An engaging 10 minute talk challenging educators to reflect on their instructional strategies in light of the fact that students no longer need to go to school to access information/knowledge. Furthermore, she challenges us to consider allowing students to have a voice in forming their knowledge, learn through experience and failure.
