mathskool.com

I just launched the alpha version of mathskool.com.

This is a website I've been working on for the past month, meant to help connect great math teachers with motivated middle and high school students. The idea is to provide a centralized library that many math teachers can contribute to, and which gives students free access to short, focused videos. I imagine teachers recommending them as supplementary material to classes, or students searching for a single particular topic while stuck on their homework or studying for a test, or even curious people learning new things on their own.

I plan to continue adding features and videos to this site gradually over time. YouTube and other math-oriented sites already offer videos, but I think mathskool is unique in focusing on math education, being free, and encouraging a more interactive community with a nice question/answer system. For now I've included a few videos of my own, and several from other people.

Let me know if you know any math teachers who might be interesting in using or contributing to the site. The next step is to start building a community of users - teachers and students.

Check it out! mathskool.com
