On-Line Projects
When I began compiling sites for the Projects page, I was amazed at the wealth of projects available on-line. Choosing which one you want your students to participate in may be one of the hardest decisions that you'll have to make as you browse through these sites. I have listed the K-12 sites that have a variety of projects first. The next section deals with individual projects. Not all of these projects may be active at the present time, but I have included them here as samples as they may give you some ideas on designing your own project.
Once again, please send me any sites for this Project page that I have not included. I also ask for your assistance in keeping me posted on any links that may be no longer active.
