Classroom users serve as the testbed for
ESCOT interactive activities by providing
valuable feedback on activity interface,
educational content, and classroom feasibiliy.
ESCOT Intergration Teams create interactive mathematics
activities for middle school students. These activities
are available on the Internet as Math Forum Problems
of the Week (PoWs). ESCOT PoWs (or EPoWs) are
designed using sofware components that support
powerful, interactive mathematics learning.
EPoW's are aligned with NCTM standards and foster
high quality mathematical learning experiences
How can I use EPoWs
in my classroom?
EPoWs can be used to supplement normal classroom
mathematics instruction, or as stand-alone activities
for student exploration. Please see our Teacher
Support Page for more information.
What kind of computer
software/hardware do I need?
To run ESCOT EPoWs you will need a Java-enabled
Internet browser. Please see our Technical
Requirements page for specific hardware requirements
and software download instructions.
