Cool Math

Week 10 brings a focus on the site Cool Math. This math site offers support for math education for students, teachers, and parents. The topics covered include Algebra, Pre-Algebra, and Pre-Calculus. Also, there are resources for Trig and Geometry.
Cool Math was established in 1997 offering math resources and spreading the love of math for all. The site boast:"Love math? Hate math? Need homework help? This is the site for you."
Included in this site, there are notes and examples that explain and break down math concepts. Cool Math is not just one site. There are resources for Parents, Teachers, Children, and games.

Cool math is a site focused at helping others and is mostly free. There are ad-free options in the site, and a disclaimer about the ads. That disclaimer noted that the site and a third party uses site traffic information for ads. Further, the site offers any who feels that their information may be on the Cool Math site without permission are able to contact the copyright office and follow instruction for infringement.

Cool Math is a good site for classroom support. More specifically for libraries, it is a good filler activity to engage students with free time. My experience shows that students grades k-8 enjoy this site the most. Interest changes depending on the school and age of the students. I have observed students at the high school using this site, but in almost three years, that number is low. Based on the information that I have observed, this site will be a good resource to offer students at a school. Further, it would be good for both teachers and parents as well. I would recommend speaking with your building math teachers to determine if the information is valid based on the curriculum. Food for thought.
