The Association exists to bring about improvements in the teaching of mathematics and its applications, and to provide a means of communication among students and teachers of mathematics. Its work is carried out through its Council and committees.
This blog is a quick (i.e. not comprehensive) introduction to blogging for educators, with hands-on steps for getting started in using MovableType as well as some conjecture on using MT in different educational contexts.
Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free, Open Source software package designed using sound pedagogical principles, to help educators create effective online learning communities. You can download and use it on any computer you have handy (incl

The techniques it explains are particularly helpful in studying for exams or in situations where you need to remember detailed, structured information. They also make things like learning foreign languages and remembering people's names much easier.
PD is an approach to design. It actively involves current and future users of a space in the design and decision making process. PD is a dynamic and continuous process. Sometimes designers may revisit a site and start another PD process because the needs of the site's users have changed. Open Road uses PD to design sites and in many of its other projects. We follow the five step participatory design process described below.
In order to sustain their competitive advantage, knowledge-companies need to harness knowledge and to analyse knowledge sharing mechanisms and learning in the whole organisation.
