=Welcome to the Math Interactives Site! =

How do students feel about learning mathematics? Many students find math incredibly difficult to understand and do not have the motivation to become successful mathematical learners. They may view math as a boring, irrelevant subject and do not desire to learn how math may assist them in the real world. These attitudes are gradually changing as students are exposed to online mathematical interactives and engaging applets. Through the use of various interactives, students can improve test scores, heighten their engagement in mathematical skills and begin to feel successful in their own mathematical computations. Interacting with online mathematical manipulatives, applets, and educational games promotes high interest in students that are already exposed to various technologies in their own lives. As educators, we can foster this growth by using some of the interactives within this wiki.

Each page is divided into two major categories: Formal Evaluations and Annotated Links to the interactive applets I have gathered. Enjoy Exploring!

Check out this video to see how some students already feel about learning with technology:
