The Internet Math Consortium believes that math comprehension can be significantly improved by enabling math educators and students to discuss math anytime anywhere via the Internet. Web math discussions are an effective use of both educators and students time. A Web math page supports the rich formatting associated with hand written math and is easy to read and edit. Web math discussions foster quality relationships and allow the educational issues to be identified and documented. Classroom interactions become more focused and relevant to the issues facing students.
Online discussions create an opportunity for students to interact with other students.
