of Women Mathematicians
An on-going project at Agnes Scott College in which students create on-line
biographies of women mathematicians.
- Professional Societies
- The World Wide
Web Mathematics Virtual Library
- Mathematics Information
Servers
An extensive list of mathematics resources including mathematics department
web servers, societies and associations, institutes and centers, mathematics
journals, mathematics preprints, subject areas pages, and mathematics software.
- Mathematical Resources
listed by Subject Classification
Links to mathematical preprints, web sites, databases, and other pertinent
material organized by the Mathematics Subject Classification codes used in
Mathematical Reviews.
-
Math on the Web from the American Mathematical
Society
-
BU Differential Equations Project
Information about the differential equations reform project at Boston University
- TAP: The Ada Project
A collection of resources for women in computing.
- Dynamical Systems and Technology
Project
This project at Boston University is designed to help secondary school and
college teachers of mathematics bring contemporary topics in mathematics (chaos,
fractals, dynamics) into the classroom.
- Frequently
Asked Questions in Mathematics
A compilation of Frequently Asked Questions (and their answers) about mathematics.
Topics range from trivia and the trivial to advanced subjects such as Wiles
recent proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.
- 20,000 Problems Under the Sea
Searchable database of journal and contest math problems.
- Cornell Theory
Center Math and Science Gateway The Cornell Theory Center provides a wide
range of educational services and links to resources in mathematics and science
for educators and students in grades 9-12.
- C*ODE*E The goal
of the Consortium of ODE Experiments is to share the rapidly growing wealth
of computational instruction techniques with as many teachers of differential
equations as is possible.
- Journal of Statistics
Education Home Page
A refereed journal on postsecondary teaching of statistics.
- The Geometry Center Welcome Page
The Geometry Center is part of the National Science and Technology Research
Center for Computation and Visualization of Geometric Structures. This site
has some wonderful graphics, multimedia documents, and course materials related
to the study of geometry.
- History of Mathematics
This archive contains the biographics of more than 1000 mathematicians. About
200 of these biographies are fairly detailed and most are accompanied by pictures
of the mathematicians. There is also a brief topics index on a series of articles
on the development of mathematical ideas cross-referenced to the biographies.
- The CHANCE Database Welcome
Page
This database contains materials designed to help teach an introductory probability
or statistics course. The CHANCE course is a case study quantitative literacy
course whose aim is to make students more informed, and critical, readers
of current news that uses probability and statistics as reported in daily
newspapers and current journals and magazines.
- Mathematics Archives WWW Server
The primary goals of the Mathematics Archives are to organize and provide
mathematicians with access to most public domain and shareware software and
many other materials that are contained on the Internet, and that can be used
in the teaching of mathematics at the community college, college and university
level.
- Sprott's Fractal
Gallery
Every day at a few minutes past midnight, a new fractal is automatically generated
and displayed on this page. Also contains pictures of other types of fractals,
strange attractors, Julia sets, quadratic map basins, and iterated function
systems. The software used to generated the pictures can be downloaded.
- SIAM's Undergraduate Page
From the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics. Contains some profiles
of mathematicians industry and information on professional opportunities such
as summer positions, summer study programs, and summer REU programs. Will
eventually contain essays on mathematics in the workplace, and articles written
by undergraduates. Still under development.
- The Math Forum
The Math Forum (formerly known as the Geometry Forum) aims to provide a one-stop
center for teachers, students, researchers, parents, and mathematicians at
all levels. The Math Forum offers: Expanded support of the best Geometry Forum
features, a comprehensive, fully searchable and annotated collection of Internet
math sites, the best math resources organized by role, by topic, and by level,
math materials that implement new pedagogy and take advantage of the Internet's
latest technology, and extensive sections devoted to math education and key
issues of interest to the mathematics community.
- Math, Stats, and OR Network
Educational resources, relevant news and information to support the learning and teaching of mathematics, statistics, and operational research in England.
- This Is Mega-Mathematics!
A project of the Computer Research and Applications Group at Los Alamos National
Laboratory that is intended to bring unusual and important mathematical ideas
to elementary school classrooms so that young people and their teachers can
think about them together.
- Reverse Engineering Calculator
A set of programs and specialized tables of mathematical constants dedicated
to the identification of real numbers. It is, in a sense, a backward calculator.
Input a number and then determine if there is a constant or function that
could have produced that number.
