The Futures Channel

This site is dedicated to connect mathematics, science, technology and engineering to the real world of careers and achievement, so that students can envision a context and purpose for what they are learning allowing them to envision their own successful futures.

There are online movies to demonstrate some excellent ways for students to learn and apply math to solving real problems. For example there is a unit on Designing Stronger Skateboards and another called The Bakery that addresses all the measurements and mathematics that go into baking successful products.

This is a very useful website for a teacher of elementary and middle school mathematics and or science.
