Learn more about the Japanese Lesson Study model. This technique could be used as a math professional development activity. The site provides information on what lesson study is, how it can be used, networks of organizations already using it, and other resources for teachers to explore in order to make their teaching more effective. -
1voteThis Java applet helps students visualize the concept that the sum of the squares of the side lengths of a right triangle truly equals the square of the length of the hypotenuse. The second applet demonstrates that Pythagorean Theorem only works for right triangles.

2voteA great collection of mathematically rich, real-world problems. Teachers can search the database by topic, habits of mind, student's math background, technology requirements, and problem duration. (Answers are also provided!)

1voteI've used this game many times in my high school classes. Students are challenged to use the digits in the current year to write expressions for the numbers 1 to 100. It's a great pre-vacation activity or an extra-credit activity for students that may finish an assignment earlier than the rest of the class. The game can get challenging if you allow factorials, logs, raising the the 0 power, etc.

1voteA cool idea to promote active learning by getting students out in their communities to identify everyday examples of math in action.

1voteTons of math resources for teachers, parents, and students. This website is created by Key Curriculum Press, so it supports the publishing company's textbooks. However, it also contains links to many other websites and Java applets. I'm particularly a fan of Discovering Geometry. Click on the image of the book and then choose a chapter. Explore Student Web Links and Dynamic Geometry Explorations.
