Abstract

The specific area and focus of this project will be that of arranging District and program math learning objectives for eventual computer banking along with materials cross-referenced to those objectives. In addition, the cross-referenced materials will be labeled as to grade level, interest level, mode of learning, and time needed for their use. The computer banking will facilitate use and prescriptive accessibility to given objectives.

The justification for such a project can be broken down into several areas: (1) the need of the elementary math teachers to have a bank of supplementary materials cross-referenced to facilitate their instruction of math learning objectives; (2) the need for such materials to be broken down in such a way as to allow the teacher to follow an instructional pattern from the concrete to the abstract according to grade level; (3) the need for a quick method of obtaining additional materials for the given math objectives.
