Response to Interactions

"The richness of the experiences, the diversity of the projects, and the fascinating men and women who share their daily experiences with mathematics make Interactions: Real Math-Real Careers a marvelous addition to the resources of the middle school and high school mathematics teacher...I was particularly pleased to see women and minorities featured without any special notice. It was as if their participation and leadership in these teams was natural and to be expected. I think that attitude sends a strong yet subtle image to students."
Jacqueline McDonald, School Science and Mathematics

"Our middle school teachers are so excited about Interactions: Real Math-Real Careers that they are creating integrated math/science units based on these materials."

"As the mathematics department chair at a large inner-city school, I have seen my department struggle with the question 'When are we ever going to use this math?'. We have few specific answers to give our students, despite much searching.  We need to open up a larger world for them.  I think this product will do just that."
