Re: Math Videos 7th -12th

Hello all - Here is the hit of math videos and sources I have heard about
from you, my listserv freinds.BC Learning Conneciton is a good source of
inexpensive videos. Check out www.bclc.bc.ca
PBS has published a a series called "Futures"  which shows math in the real
world in an upbeat sort of way.

Someone else wrote that PBS has a series called Eddie Files which can be
purchased from PBS for one year and then must be erased.  Another writes to
try Windows on Math by Optical Data.  It is a complete program on LD.

Yet another says to look at a 7 volume set called Life By The Numbers which
is a PBS show.
Teacher's Video Company was suggested.

Another idea is to go to http://www.acemath.com    This site has videos on
math and reading.

ESPN2 has an ongoing program called SportsFigures described as "designed for
high school students, this series features professional athletes who help
demonstrate math and physics concepts through sports situations."  ESPN2
will provide support materials for the programs and you can videotape them
when they air (3o min per program) commercial free with free-use copyright
stipulations.  Look in Cable in the Classroom to find more.
