Don - check the NIFL Lincs Science and Numeracy Special Collection under
Numeracy:
http://literacynet.org/sciencelincs/
There are on-line resources for both teachers and students.
Also, search the Numeracy list archives for past suggestions posted by
practitioners:
The Numeracy List is archived on the NIFL LINCS system (www.nifl.gov/lincs/)
and
the Math Forum (http://forum.swarthmore.edu/)
Both are searchable archives.
To read the Numeracy archives on NIFL LINCS go to:
http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions/numeracy/numeracy.html
To read the Numeracy postings on the Math Forum go to:
http://mathforum.org/epigone/numeracy
Finally, with your permission, I'll cross-post this message to the
Numeracy list. You might be able to get some responses from math
practitioners.
