International Journal of Instructional Media, v31 n1 p5 Win 2004
Cyberchase is an animated television series airing on public broadcasting stations throughout the United States. It focuses on mathematics for elementary-level students ages 8-11 and is designed to engage young people with math concepts in a highly stimulating multimedia format. As part of continuing program improvement, a website for parents and teachers has been added to existing online resources. Building upon the success of the Cyberchase website for students, the website for parents and teachers offers sound advice to help busy adults navigate the series and its various episodes. This brief article describes the program series, online resources and the website for parents and teachers.
