A Biological ESTEEM module in the BioChemistry Category. This workbook calculates the necessary components to create a buffer solution.
One of a series of reports on the status of tools for rendering mathematical symbols and formulas in web pages.
This suite of five interactive applets (written with GeoGebra) allows exploration of definitions and theorems commonly presented in first-year analysis courses. Topics include sequence convergence, continuity at a point, the Mean Value theorem, Taylor series, and Riemann sums. Included with each applet is a pair of activities: one for becoming comfortable using the applet, and one for using the applet to explore the associated topic in depth.
This small Web application creates high quality images of 3D surfaces defined by mathematical expressions. Images can be colored, resized and freely rotated in space.
This article examines the dynamic geometry package GeoGebra from the point of view of Euclidean Constructions.

A review of Tom Leathrum's "Mathlets: Java Applets for Math Explorations"

Users toss a virtual coin or die to investigate the law of averages. The outcomes of multiple experiments (consisting of 10000 tosses each) can be graphed on the same plot to facilitate visualization of trends. An activity is provided to facilitate thinking about the law of averages with the applet.

This ESTEEM module in the Biometrics category creates graphical images of a certain type of fractals (Iterated Function Systems) that can be constructed by linear transformations.
This article provides Flash files that will deliver a quiz made up of multiple choice and multiple answer questions that the instructor can create in a simple text file. No knowledge for Flash or programming required!
