I read "Exploring Mathematics of the Designed World" in the November/December Issue of Connect Magazine. It talks about how mathematics teachers can use the internet to work with students on topics such as symmetry and the repeating patterns of tesselations. The benefits of using the online resources are: the number of examples that students can work with, their focus on real world applications and examples and the ability to transfer understanding through exposure to new contexts and related experiences. Web sites are cited and suggestions for developing mathematics units on design are provided. It also covers a wide variety of grade levels and would be a good resource for the more advanced tech user or one that has access to a lab.
