There are 9 chapters, each 13 minutes long. The book contains a total of 117 minutes of video, but can also be read as an ordinary textbook.The film can be enjoyed by anyone, provided the chapters are well-chosen. There are 9 chapters, each 13 minutes long. Chapters 3-4, 5-6 and 7-8 are double chapters, but apart from that, they are more or less independent of each other. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=82381 This java applet simulates drawing block and mat diagrams on isometric dot paper. Part of the NCTM Illuminations project. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=75453 This is a collection of Geometer's sketchpad applets with description. Even without Geometer's sketchpad the pages are very informative. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=88217 Biography of Thales of Miletus (624BC-547BC) http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89923 A second page of Java applets to demonstrate basic geometry. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84304 The videos on this site will help you understand how the basic area formulas for rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, trapezoids, and circles are developed and hopefully give you a better understanding of the formulas. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=434072 This site is a selection of mathlets designed for "geometry classes to review basic algebra skills in such a way that they can check their answers and/or get hints as to how to proceed. The idea behind these "procedure-based" dynamic worksheets is to provide students the opportunity to review and practice algebra skills with problems they create, while at the same time providing a means for students to check their answers and to get a hint if needed. The hints will walk the student through the problem in a step by step manner.״
