Students working mathematically to solve problems. Developing cooperative learning skills through virtual teams. Applying literacy skills in Mathematics. The Maths on the Net website is linked to the CAP website. Every 2 weeks one problem from each stage is featured, with samples of student solutions and other feedback being posted on the site at the end of the time .
Students work in pairs or small teams to solve the problems.
We encourage students to work together across clusters of schools and use email, fax and telephone to communicate to reach a solution. The manager assesses the solutions and provides feedback to the students. Some of the more interesting solutions and explanations should be then chosen by the local organiser to be sent to the Maths on the Net site manager for posting on the website. Organise with other schools who are interested in forming a group with you. The manager needs to make arrangements with the Maths on the Net site manager to add the group to the site.
