Do the Math courses for Teachers

Back to the Western University (formerly UWO)/Fields Institute info I shared last week, there are some Math Courses for Teachers available that help teachers, students and parents boost their math knowledge.  This may be what some of you are looking for.  It is called "Do the Math" and can be found here. You can get a certificate of completion and the cost is free or minimal, depending on the option you choose.

Performing Research Ideas

Another resource page coming out of the Western University and Fields Institute collaboration is the Performing Research Ideas page.  On this site you will find several documentaries, mp3 files of math songs, and lesson plans that explore interesting concepts like "Do Parallel Lines Ever Meet?" and "Can I Hold Infinity in My Hand?"  The student creativity that is on display in the videos and songs is astounding!

Learning all starts with a great question and the math to explore the answer.
