Microsoft Education Labs

If you are a Maths or Science teacher, please check out these resources at http://www.educationlabs.com/pages/default.aspx. What particularly interests us is the Maths worksheet generator. It generates problems and gives the answers without showing how to work it out. It saves time setting up exercises for learners to practice and is paper-based. Unfortunately, the marking of the exercises will remain the domain of the educator, otherwise the learners can mark them. The target audience are the lower grades, which is good. There is also a Chemistry Add-in program which will help with inserting Chemical formulae into Word documents. We have not looked at this yet, but we're sure it will be of use.
