Description: Developed primarily for instructors of general college and advanced high school mathematics, this Web site is a collection of teaching tools and demonstrations that intertwines common scenarios with mathematical principles. Some of the demos are browser-based, like one that uses a Java applet to show the steps for multiplying two matrices. Others require some prior setup; for example, the concept of infinite series can be explained quite easily by dividing quarters of a donut among three student volunteers. Complete descriptions of the demos, with materials lists, are given. There are additional activities that use graphical calculators or software.
