Online Resources for Verbalizing Mathematics ASTER Demonstration http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/raman/aster/aster-toplevel.html A text-to-speech program for the visually impaired. Several examples of math equations are read in a computer voice. Includes simple fractions and expressions, superscripts, subscripts, Knuths examples of fractions and exponents, continued fractions, basic algebra, square roots, trigonometric identities, logarithms, series, integrals, summations, limits, cross-referenced equations, distance formula, quantified expression, exponentiation, matrixes, and Faa de Brunos formula. Handbook for Spoken Mathematics http://s22318.tsbvi.edu/mathproject/appB-sec1.asp#main How to read the Greek alphabet (includes pronunciation and the corresponding Roman letter), basic symbols, algebra, trigonometric and hyperbolic expressions, logic and set theory, elementary and analytic geometry, statistics and mathematics of finance, calculus and analysis, linear algebra, and topology and abstract spaces. Caution: this handbook is intended for the blind or visually disabled, so there may be some differences. For example, an ellipsis will be shown as dot dot dot. PBS Teachers http://www.pbs.org/teachers/classroom/9-12/math/resources/?page=1 Over one hundred math lessons with illustrated explanations, videos, and activities. Though the level is for high school students, there may be some crossover with your course. Teachers can search this comprehensive catalog by keyword, topic, or grade range. Topics include applied mathematics, calculus, data analysis/probability, discrete mathematics, functions and algebra, geometry and spatial sense, measurement, numbers and operations, problem solving, statistics, and trigonometry. Mathworld http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ This comprehensive website offers information on verbalizing and understanding most fields of mathematics. There is also an extensive glossary of terms.
