Check the news page for regular updates on new materials. In addition to materials found at this site, some of the CCP materials are housed at Cal Poly and some at Montana State University . Some modules use an application area to stimulate learning of mathematics, and others go straight to the mathematics. Projects are longer units that may be completed by small groups of students over a period of one or more weeks. Most projects involve a significant application of mathematics and are intended to demonstrate the process by which mathematics is used by working scientists and engineers.
Textbooks are still longer works that support entire courses or major portions thereof.
Our Web-based books differ significantly from print textbooks in their degree of interactivity and use of computer tools.
