 * [|PI Mathematics]**PI Mathematics, a collaborative project, using the concept of PI as the focus, is a home page on the WWW. This multidisciplinary project which includes math, history, English and thinking skills is designed for fifth through eighth graders. It will allow students to discover the approximate value of PI, an irrational number, using measurement and reporting the data, applying formulas, problem solving and participating in a collaborative project utilizing Internet resources. Students will also explore the history of PI, using Internet references.
 * [|Project Interactivate]** The goals of Project Interactivate are the creation, collection, evaluation, and dissemination of java-based courseware for middle school mathematics explorations. "Interactivated" lessons, discussions, and activities enable the teacher to extend hands-on activities and to teach new content areas with professional competence and confidence, incorporating technology in appropriate ways.
 * [|PUMAS - Practical Uses of Math and Science]**PUMAS (poo' · mas) -- is a collection of one-page examples of how math and science topics taught in K-12 classes can be used in interesting settings, including everyday life. The examples are written primarily by scientists and engineers, and are available to teachers, students, and other interested parties via the PUMAS Web Site.
 * [|SMILE - Science and Mathematics Initiative for Learning Enhancement]**The SMILE program is designed to enhance the elementary and high school learning of Science and Mathematics through the use of the phenomenological approach. Since 1986 each summer session participant has been asked to create and publish a single concept lesson plan. These lesson plans include the materials needed, a suggested strategy and expected outcomes. There are currently almost 800 lesson plans available.
