Mathematics WWW Virtual Library
Combined archive and directory of mathematics web sites and teaching materials. Very comprehensive. Hosted by Florida State University.
A large comprehensive set of links to variety of different Maths Sites. If you want to see the vast range of Maths resources available on the Web then start from this page It is hosted by the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
This is a large well annotated comprehensive set of links to all things mathematical on the Web. It is part of the Math Archive Site
This is a Site that links to collections of Secondary School materials and is run by the 'Mathematics Archive Group'. It is divided into sections on Lesson Plans / Software / Topics in Mathematics / Contests and Competitions / Professional Societies / Other.
Frank Potter's Science Gems - Mathematics
Another large collection of links to available Maths resources.
Math Forum Internet Collection ( list )
This list of links is encyclopaedic in its range.
This is a major mathematical resource. It was created by Eric W. Weisstein and is hosted by Wolfram Research. Try searching the site for a topic of interest. This is the largest on-line mathematical encyclopedia with definitions, explanations, formulae etc. Never again will you be stumped by those strange mathematical facts that your pupils tell you about!
Mathematical Quotations Server
This Site is run by Furnam University It is a large database of choice quotes from/about Mathematicians/Mathematics. It is listed alphabetical by author.
This must rank as one of the more esoteric Sites. Suppose in your class investigation into 'Tribonnaci numbers' (1,1,1,3,5,9,17,...) you calculate the ratio of consecutive terms. By the 30th term the ratio has converged to 1.839286755 Recognise it? Type it into the Reverse Symbolic Calculator and it tells you its the "Tribonacci Constant"! It also calculates that it is a root of the equation: -1-x-x2+x3. Now there's something!
St Andrews University Maths History Site
Our local Site which now contains biographical and mathematical details of an astonishing 1100 mathematicians at the last count.
This site aims to link young people who like Maths and is a result of a collaboration between Cambridge University and the Royal Institution. It describes itself as "The On-line Maths Club" and publishes INTERACT , a monthly on-line journal with articles, problems and puzzles. Monthly sets of problems are posted and student solutions invited. There is a forum for student-to-student / teacher-to-teacher discussion and an "Ask a Mathematician" service manned by volunteer Cambridge University Maths students. Highly recommended.
This is a large set of links to Sites which contain reference to current unsolved problem in Mathematics
The Sites mentioned above are only a very small sample of the Mathematical Sites that exist on the Web. They are intended as a sampler of the type of resources available and as a gateway for further exploration. For the purposes of school Maths Departments there are several possibile uses of the Web, the aim being to enhance and enrich our teaching of Maths:
