Georgia Math Education Wikis and Listservs

Georgia is really rockin’ when it comes to communication regarding math education. The wikis do not need login information and they are separated in bands. They also have email distribution lists which are free to participate.

MathOps: Targeted Math Instruction

MathOps provides targeted instruction on algebra concepts. The site offers free and paid subscriptions. The following link contains over 100 free videos exclusively on algebraic concepts: http://bit.ly/Zquo3G.

What I love about this site that other sites don’t offer are the accompanying text for each video and the opportunity to flip through instruction without confusion. The information is clear and easy to understand. From the videos that I have viewed, all the text is typed which provide clarity for reading and for copying notes. Some videos also offer quizzes at the end of each video.  

This is an excellent resource for differentiating instruction in the classroom, especially if your school allows electronic devices, tablets, or e-readers.
