There’s a new Stack Exchange site for mathematics educators to ask and answer questions to do with the teaching of mathematics.
To give you an idea of what the site’s for, here are a few interesting questions that have already been asked:
- How can I estimate the length of an exam? (top answer: do it yourself, and multiply by 8)
- What is a good handwriting font for mathematics? (more data for Let’s Talk About X, which provoked a lot of discussion here a while ago)
- How to assign homework when answers are freely available or attainable online? (top answer: remember the true meaning of
Christmashomework)
The site is quite US-oriented at the moment because of who’s using it, but it doesn’t specifically exclude non-Americans from its remit.
