After you register for the internet section of Math 1314, you will receive a login, password, and syllabus at your initial meeting with the instructor. This will allow you to access the college algebra material on the server. We will discuss course mechanics and in particular, spend some time in dealing with the question of how to communicate mathematical material over the internet. This article outlines some of the problems and how we deal with them at Ranger College. In a regular classroom, math is communicated by grabbing a sheet of paper and writing the appropriate symbols. The instructor generally does this on a blackboard. However, many of the symbols we use frequently in math are not available on the computer keyboard, and so some other method must be employed to communicate electronically. Here are some possibilities: 1. Take the sheet of paper and simply send it by fax! Of course, this technique requires both sender and receiver to have a fax machine available at all times and bypasses the internet altogether. 2. Scan the handwritten sheet, create a graphic file, and attach it to email. The problem here is that the graphic file may be huge, and this would present a bandwidth problem if either party had a slow connection.

Communicating with Parents
Advanced Search
For Connected Mathematics to be successful, it is extremely important for districts to familiarize parents/guardians with the curriculum, address their concerns and questions, and keep them informed about what is happening in class and about their children's progress. The following sections are found below.
  • Parent/Guardian Concerns Suggestions for Keeping Parents Informed Helping Parents Help Their Children Parent/Guardian Concerns A problem-centered curriculum like Connected Mathematics will look quite different to parents/guardians than the mathematics curricula they studied in school. It is not easy to thumb through the materials and see the mathematics and the development of concepts, reasoning, and skills. To see the level of understanding and skills developed in the curriculum, one must examine teacher materials, student materials, the ensuing discussions in the classroom, and student work. It is important that districts address parent/guardian concerns and keep them thoroughly informed from the start about the mathematics that their children are studying. Parents/guardians need to understand the goals of the program. They should know that the primary goal is to have students make sense of mathematical concepts, become proficient with basic skills, and communicate their reasoning and understanding clearly. The concepts and topics students study should be familiar to parents/guardians, but they may need reassurance that significant and challenging mathematics is being studied. The emphasis on reasoning and communication may be less familiar. Parents/guardians may need help to understand that reasoning and communication are valued and that the program provides students with many opportunities to demonstrate their progress in these areas.

    A BSTRACT
    From its humble beginning as one of the first mathematics sites to appear on the internet, the site now known as mathworld.wolfram.com has come to be one of the world's most extensive and widely read sites for mathematics. The site features more than 11,000 individual entries, and contains thousands of diagrams and tens of thousands of equations. This site is extensively used by students, researchers, and practitioners of mathematics, and is still largely written and maintained by its original creator Eric Weisstein under the sponsorship of Wolfram Research, Inc., makers of the popular and full-featured mathematics package Mathematica. In this talk, Dr. Weisstein will briefly discuss the history of the site, as well as highlight a number of its unique features. Work currently underway to add new features and new functionality to the site will be discussed, and an open invitation for collaboration and contribution will be extended to all interested parties. Dr. Eric Weisstein received a BA in physics and astronomy from Cornell University in 1990, and holds a 1996 PhD in planetary astronomy from the California Institute of Technology. Since 1999, he has been at Wolfram Research, where he works as a full-time encyclopedist.

    COMMUNICATING MATHEMATICS
    K12 Mathematics Teacher Guide for Linux
    Text Markup Languages and WYSIWYG Editors In Linux, the standard method for composing documents that contain math expressions is to use Tex or Latex. Latex is an extension of Tex that provides capabilities, such as certain kinds of graphics, that Tex does not have. You run the document through Tex or Latex which produces a Device Independent (dvi) file. You can preview the document with xdvi. Then you print the document or convert the document to html, postscript or a variety of other document formats, including HTML. There are many differences between text markup and WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors and word processors. In text markup languages like HTML, Tex, and Latex, a text editor is used to type special characters for special effects. For instance, to get x squared in Tex or Latex you just type $ x^2 $. In WYSIWYG editors like the equation editor in Star Office, or the experimental browser, Amaya, you click on a form for x squared and then enter the x as the base and the 2 as the superscript. For simple documents containing math, a WYSIWYG editor is appropriate to use. For larger more complex documents Tex or Latex is definitely the preferred software. The reason is that authors have greater control over the layout and appearance of the content with text markup. Also, WYSIWYG editors will tend to generate many more characters for the effect than text markup. For example, here is the quadratic equation in Tex, Latex, and the WYSIWYG editor Amaya, which uses MathML for the markup.
