TI Announces "The National Math Trail"
Posted by Nick on 6 April 2000, 02:17 GMT
Texas Instruments has announced a program called The National Math Trail. To make it short, this is a program where students and teachers nationwide can share their mathematics experiences on the Internet. One of the more interesting facets of this is the opportunity for educators and students to reinforce mathematical experiences in the community with FMV, audio and pictures. I wonder if our shameless plug of Pi Day would qualify :)

Good idea, now there's a way for me to learn the weird math concepts on my 86 (my teacher has an 83).

Sounds great. Now I'm wondering how they're going to do it - for real - as the announcement is pretty vague.
Plus they'll need to provide rather quick connections, if they want to make it possible to share videos...

I'm kind of disappointed that Ticalc didn't celebrate April 2nd (42 Day) or February 11 (The 42nd day of the year)...

Well, 42 is the supreme constant. It is followed by pi, 0, e, 1, phi, i, psi, and a variety of other cool numbers (in about that order or coolness).
If you have no idea what I'm talking about (most people usually don't), read The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy and learn more about 42 at the above URL.
