Very similar to Geometer's sketchpad.

The design and development of LeActiveMath learning content aims at advancing e-learning in high schools by following a sound constructivist pedagogical approach providing a learning experience tailored to the needs of the students. ActiveMath is an intelligent learning environement that adapts to your mastery level: It tries to estimate your current knowledge, among others depending on the exercises you solved, the texts you read, etc.This book is an introduction into differential calculus. Using a hiking tour as an example, we successively introduce the notions "difference quotient", "derivative", and "derivative function". Finally, the most important rules of differentiation are treated. Note that some of the examples and exercises in this book are generated automatically, based on the data (fields of interest, state of knowledge, etc.) in your learner model. So every user gets his own individually adapted version of this book.

Great use of a wiki for a high school pre-calculus class. Note the guidelines for "constructive modification". This idea good be extended across the curriculum. What a way to differentiate!

SAT Math Pro contains more than 120 video lessons and 300 interactive practice problems that target key areas such as algebra, geometry, data analysis and number properties. Each practice set contains five topic specific math problems, step by step video solutions and follow up questions that reinforce concepts and strategies. SAT Math Pro is being provided, free of charge, to any student with internet access. This is an incredible resource that is not only applicable to the SAT but the PSAT, ACT, and high school assessment tests as well.

Google has some free software that some Math Teachers may want to look at and use with their classes. The software is called SketchUp and it’s a simple but powerful tool for quickly and easily creating, viewing and modifying your 3D ideas.lick on a shape and push or pull it to create your desired 3D geometry. Experiment with color and texture directly on your model. Real-time shadow casting lets you see exactly where the sun falls as you model. Select from thousands of pre-drawn components to save time drawing. I was very impressed with the ease of use of the software along with the video tutorials and user guide that is on the site. It’s worth taking a look if you teach Geometry.
