Abstract

Technological advances in high-performance computing and communications over the past decade have brought unprecedented power to the desktops of teachers and students. Within the past three years, the use of the World Wide Web-known as WWW, W3, or simply “the Web”—has increased dramatically with the advent of such software as NCSA Mosaic, Netscape, and Lynx. This software has led to an explosion of resources on the international information superhighway. These Web resources bold many possibilities for both students and teachers in secondary mathematics education by allowing new opportunities for collaboration, communication, and exploration.
