• Math Forum: Technology Problems of the Week

  Technology Problems of the Week (tPoWs) are freely accessible problem-solving challenges modeled on our Problems of the Week that take advantage of interactive mathematics tools such as Java applets, TI-Nspire™, The Geometer’s Sketchpad®, Fathom™, or spreadsheets. Students are invited to use the link “Submit your answer” to share their solutions, and then “self-mentor” using specially designed hints, checks, and suggestions for extensions.
