We are working with our sister sites in New Mexico and California to build the most comprehensive collection of middle school math web resources. This overview of technology links is designed to ultimately support the standards-based math classroom. Let us know if you have anything to add. Any website you have found valuable in the integration of technology into a middle school classroom will be added to this collection of sites. Not if they are adopted in a vacuum.
Evidence strongly suggests that technology alone is no panacea.

A good introduction to project-based learning and models of technology integration.
