Algebra

• Interactive Algebra

A complete algebra revision (or learning package) for year 8 –10 students.
There are 15 interactive lessons in 3 sections (the graphing section is the best of the three):
UNIT ONE: Equations
Note: these lessons require a browser that reads JavaScript!
Lesson 1 (ax + b = c)
Lesson 2 (ax + b = cx + d)
UNIT TWO: Factoring
Note: these lessons require a browser that reads JavaScript!
Lesson 1 (Factoring for x² + bx + c)
Lesson 2 (Factoring for ax² + bx + c)
Lesson 3 (Factoring for ax² + bx + c) - including negatives
Lesson 4 (Factoring for a² - b²) - difference of squares
Lesson 5 (Factoring Helper) - factors trinomials of your choice
UNIT THREE: Graphing
Note: these lessons require a browser that reads Java!
Lesson 1 (Graphing Ordered Pairs)
Lesson 2 (Calculating Slope)
Lesson 3 (Graphing a Line: y = mx + b)
Lesson 4 (Graphing Helper for y = mx + b)

• "Interactive Calculus 2.0, Internet Edition is an on-line comprehensive multimedia course in calculus that is ideal for presenting the mathematics of change and motion. It contains the complete text of Calculus, Sixth Edition by Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards. In addition, it contains many other exciting features, such as a syllabus manager, chat rooms and mail lists, rotatable three-dimensional graphs, editable two-dimensional graphs, open explorations, animations, videos, and simulations. The internet edition provides a cross-platform, interactive, and social learning environment."

 There has been several questions about "how an instructor gets a free desk copy." For now, the easiest way is to write directly to odx@psu.edu. It will register you and email your password to you. For the registration, please include the following.

Statistics and Probabilty

• Exploring DataThe website contains activities, worksheets, assessment and datasets in both html and Word 2.0 format. As many high school teachers of statistics in Queensland have had little formal training in modern statistics, there are also a number of articles to extend the knowledge of the teacher. The website is devoted mainly to data exploration, but also has curriculum support materials (though not as comprehenisive) for other aspects of introductory statistics, such as elementary probability, the normal distribution and inference.
