I appreciate that you took some time to look. I suspect that you do not mean ?see ? mathematics?, since nobody can see mathematics in the way that we ?see? objects of reality. Perhaps you mean ?read details of the constructs and systems of mathematical ideas?.
In any case, looking for something concrete for pilot projects is always difficult. Those who wish to become familiar enough with the pilot materials will need to invest even more time, and there is also some trust involved. People who are incapable of trusting (or unwilling) will probably be happier if they do not try.
A pilot project means that the entire complex of the material is being developed, whether it is being done by a few people or hundreds. There are hundreds of our colleagues involved in the pilots of these two pathways. Easy access to the constructs and systems will come later.
In the meantime, we appreciate the support of our colleagues to continue our hard work at creating something better ? and truly different ? for our students.
