Park City Mathematics Institute 2001
2001 PCMI Working Group
Internet Committee

Participants will investigate uses of the Internet for learning more and deeper mathematics. The group will examine such tools as the Math Forum's 'Ask Dr. Math' service as a vehicle for learning and researching mathematics, and also for thinking about how to communicate mathematics to the 'naive' learner. They and the materials they develop will also serve as a resource for the other working groups in their use the Internet to enhance learning and to disseminate lessons/activities/experiences. This will include taking a lead in finding existing online resources, familiarizing the other groups with those resources, helping prepare the groups' work for the web, and aiding in the running of discussion groups focused on that work.
