Title of presentation:	Mathematics and the Web: Lessons Learned
Abstract:
Our presentation will describe how we integrated the use of the Internet into traditional mathematics courses at Manhattan College. Our goal was to create a pedagogically sound experience for the students. We have spent years integrating Maple into the mathematics curriculum at Manhattan College. Our experience proved to be very valuable when we started to integrate the web into our courses. We tried not to make the same mistakes twice. The lessons that we learned when we introduced Maple into the classroom were easily extrapolated to help us avoid similar pitfalls when the web was introduced. In our presentation, we will give specific examples of how the use of technology has enriched our mathematics courses. Perhaps more importantly we will provide specific examples of what did not work at all. Our presentation will include examples using the computer algebra system Maple and the course management system Blackboard
