The Wolfram Teacher Network offers expert advice online to teachers who want to use the award-winning software system Mathematica in their classrooms. Wolfram's Mathematica mentors are trained to serve and support teachers by: - answering technical questions about Mathematica - sharing insights from fellow teachers who have established successful Mathematica programs in their schools - delivering seminars and training sessions on educational tools for the classroom Wolfram is also encouraging teachers experienced using Mathematica to apply to become mentors in the program. \|/ MATHEMATICA http://www.wolfram.com/products/mathematica/trial.cgi Get a fully functional, 15-day, save-disabled trial version of Mathematica 5.1. -|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|-\-/-|- MATTI MATH http://www.mattimath.com/page_51.asp The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives for Interactive Mathematics (NLVM) has just come out on CD-ROM. The CD offers "save" and "print" functionality, features not included on the NLVM Web site. MATTI Math, an educational software retailer, is the official distributor for the NLVM CD edition. Single- and multi-user versions of the CD can be ordered.

The Institute will provide 50 secondary teachers with the materials and pedagogy necessary for implementing successful reform-based calculus programs in their own schools. In a workshop environment led by Craig Herring and Lois Cohen, participants will engage in discussions and problem solving activities. Judith Broadwin will be a featured speaker. The instructors, all classroom teachers, will bring a wealth of materials to share. All participants will receive a copy of the text, "Calculus, Single Variable, 3rd ed." by Deborah Hughes-Hallett, et al, and a small stipend to help defray travel and lodging costs.
