Course Communities in Undergraduate Mathematics
Rating

Course Communities in Undergraduate Mathematics is a collection of online resources for undergraduate mathematics courses. The courses done so far are one-variable calculus, multivariable calculus, and ordinary differential equations. These resources were assembled and cataloged by separate working groups for each course. In addition there is a pseudo-course, developmental mathematics, obtained from Tom Carey's project of the same name. A working group is currently identifying and cataloging resources for a course in probability.

Investigations is a complete K-5 mathematics curriculum, developed at TERC in Cambridge, Mass. It is designed to help all children understand the fundamental ideas of number and operations, geometry, data, measurement, and early algebra. The curriculum has four major goals: to offer students meaningful mathematical problems; emphasize depth in mathematical thinking; communicate mathematics content and pedagogy to teachers; and expand the pool of mathematically literate students. This site includes descriptions of the units in each grade, K through 5; ordering information; and information on professional-development workshops designed to facilitate introduction of this curriculum.
