At the end of yesterday’s presentation, I included a link to a new interactive Mindmap called “Play and Learn” (shortcut is http://bit.ly/PlayLearn).
This map is organized by subject and includes games or simulations that are available for each. If you know of other games that are useful (focusing on high school / college age), please send them along to busynessgirl at gmail dot com or comment them in here.

In all the game examples there are very few (any?) that address math at high school or above level.
@Dean There aren’t many (yet).
Great resource. Here is one to add to the engineering branch. West point Bridge builder.

Hello,
I’ve also sent out a call on Twitter, but I am a faithful reader of your blog and thought that you might have some resources about conversations around the pros/cons of proctored and unproctored exams for online math classes.
Any leads you have would be very much appreciated!

I insist on proctored exams for my online math courses. They don’t have to be taken at MY campus, but wherever they are taken, I must approve of the proctor.
