Hints and feedback are plentiful and useful. New problems are generated at the click of a button. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=81519 This site generates problems that test students' understanding of exponent rules. Hints and feedback are available http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84307 Find the domain and range of a function given its graph. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=91178 This module helps students identify level of measurement by giving them ten exercises in which they must determine whether a variable is being measured at the nominal, ordinal, or interval-ratio level. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=83836 This site is devoted to learning mathematics through practice. Many dozens of practice problems are provided in Precalculus, Calculus I - III, Linear Algebra, Number Theory, and Abstract Algebra. The last two subject areas -- referred to as "books" on the site -- are under construction. To each topic within a book (for example, Epsilon and Delta within Calculus I) there is a "module" of approximately 20 to 30 problems. Each module also includes a help page of background material. The modules are interactive to some extent and often provide suggestions when wrong answers are entered. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=363275 This site consists of examples, exercises, games, and other learning activities associated with the textbook, Discrete Mathematics: Mathematical Reasoning and Proof with Puzzles, Patterns and Games by Doug Ensley and Winston Crawley. Requires Adobe Flash player. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84699 This is a collection of activities for use in precalculus and single variable calculus. It is prefaced by a brief summary of what I know about group learning and how I use the activities. Many activities are quick combinations of discovery and practice. The statistics gets a bit lengthy, but I thought I'd include it anyway. As far as I recall, my text is only mentioned once and this posting should not be considered a commercial. Use the activities any way you want. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=291570 This site contains a tool that allows a user to rapidly compute the product (or other formula) of two matrices. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=238901 This activity enables students to learn about confidence intervals and hypothesis tests for a population mean. It focuses on the t-distribution, the assumptions for using it, and graphical displays. The activity also focuses on how to interpretations a confidence interval, a p-value, and a hypothesis test.
