- Conference on Technology and NCTM Standards 2000, hosted by the Electronic Format Group and the Eisenhower National Clearinghouse, a followup to last year's conference when Forum perspectives on technology were presented. This year's conference was smaller and the technologists worked with Standards writers to develop electronic examples for the Standards.
- Math Metadata, an informal group working to pull together a structure and strategy for developing metadata for the entire math and math education community. Representatives from IMS Metadata, the Eisenhower National Clearinghouse, Engineering Project Needs, and other organizations attended the meeting, and members from AMS, MAA, NCTM, etc. will soon be added.
- NCTM Electronic Resources Committee, a meeting at which recommendations regarding technology were drawn up for the NCTM board.
