I am a former math teacher and am writing on behalf of "MathTutor Educational Software", a company that publishes software packages for middle school and high school math. I have tried the software, which is for Windows PCs, and am very impressed. I have looked at other software packages but prefer the MathTutor programs because they have excellent tutorials in addition to practice and diagnostics.
The company is offering free software to students at any school that places a link to the company's website somewhere on the school's website They have asked my advice on how to "spread the word" about the offer. So I am writing to ask if anyone can suggest a good way to contact math teachers or math department chairs to inform them of the offer. They provided a description of the offer, and I've posted it below.
Thank you so much for your help!
If you wish to contact me by e-mail: hata10148 (at) gmail (dot) com
Sincerely,
Hannah Alter
Free Math Software to Students at a School In Exchange for a Link
=====================================================
MathTutor Software has a family of self study software titles for Grades 6-12 math. The programs are interactive tutorials that have been extremely effective in helping students learn the concepts of math and build problem solving skills. The programs also have built in diagnostic tests that identify a student's strengths and weaknesses, and generate a personalized study plan.
We would be pleased to offer a free program in the MathTutor series to any student at your school. This could be beneficial for students who wish to work on their math skills at home, in their free time. All they would need is a Windows PC. Students could also use the Web-based version of the program when it becomes available this summer.
If this is of interest to your school, we simply ask that you put a link to our
homepage (www.mathtutor.com) somewhere on your school's website. Perhaps on a teacher's personal page where they list websites or other resources. If a student clicks the link they will see a form that asks them to select a free title. The download instructions for the title will then be e-mailed to them.
We think your students will find the MathTutor series to be an outstanding way to build math skills and gain the confidence so critical to future math success.
We hope this might be of interest to you.
My current lab is in a room 30' X 24'. I currently have classes up to 28 students in grades K through 6. I have 32 student computers with 19" monitors (21" across), 1 server, 1 Smartboard with its own computer, my desk and computer, 3 printers, 2 switches, 1 wireless router, 2 external harddrives, and a large screen television.

The lab is moving into a room that is 12' X23'. One of the 12' walls is really windows with heating system under them and the other 12' wall has the entry way door (5' wall - 3' door - 4' wall).
Can someone design the space to accommodate everything? Oh, Smartboard won't be moved.

Hi!
I wanted to create a survey on Technology usage in the classroom. I was wondering if anyone had any examples of surveys they give to teachers? Any help would be appreciated!

I was wondering if anyone has written a 50/50 grant for equipment in the last year or two and would be willing to share the grant? My administrator feels we need to see a completed grant to truly understand what it is asking for.
It used to be "turn off the tv week." This time, the students and their teacher attempted a week without connection. A seventh grader wrote, “I don’t know how people in the early days did without laptops."
How did it go? Click below to read about the experience, lessons taught, and some lessons learned.
