This is part of the University of Tennessee at Knoxville Math Archives ``Topics in Mathematics'' collection of links to mathematical material on the Web.
Type of Material:
A large list of links to geometry-related sites on the World Wide Web.
Recommended Uses:
An exploration of geometry at any level could begin here.
Technical Requirements:
Any browser will work.
Identify Major Learning Goals:
A resource for further exploration.
Target Student Population:
This is like the index of a Geometry Encyclopedia. The items are marked with ``icons to quickly show the level of mathematical background to read the materials'' ranging from K-6 to Graduate and Professional.
Prerequisite Knowledge or Skills:
None.
Content Quality
Rating:
Strengths:
Comprehensive and useful.
Concerns:
Is this site being updated? The copyright is 1995-2001. 13 links are completely ``broken'', and another 12 lead to redirection pages. (The latter occurs, for example, with any link to a Math Forum page, since the Forum's server has changed from forum.swarthmore.edu to mathforum.org.)
Potential Effectiveness as a Teaching Tool
Rating:
Strengths:
For a teacher or a student looking for web-based geometry material, this page puts a very large number (over 150) of sites just a click away. The icons allow one to know beforehand the level of the material and the technology (Java, etc.) it requires. The "keywords" give useful information beyond the title.
Concerns:
The site would deserve a higher rating if it were regularly updated, but the usefulness of a link index such as this depends greatly on the links being kept current.
Ease of Use for Both Students and Faculty
Rating:
Strengths:
The organization is transparent. This is part of an archive with 42 sections, so related topics can be easily explored.
Concerns:
None.
