MATHDL: A Library of Online Learning Materials in Mathematics and Its Applications

MATHDL是一个独立审查的本科数学学习材料的在线图书馆。MATHDL是美国数学协会（MAA）和数学论坛的合作项目。MAA提供内容监督、材料获取和选择、政策和一般管理。Math Forum监督用户界面的开发，并管理托管MATHDL内容和服务页面所需的所有平台。数学论坛计划为图书馆中列出的每个单元主持讨论组。国家科学基金会数学和物理科学理事会的多学科活动办公室认识到数字图书馆收藏数学科学学习资源的重要性，为该项目提供了重要的共同资助。MATHDL分为三个部分：在线数学及其应用图书馆（LOMA）、在线数学及其应用期刊（JOMA）和商业产品图书馆（LCP）。LOMA包含免费的在线学习材料，这些材料已经过课堂测试和审查。这些材料已经在学生中进行了测试，提交了同行评审，并由LOMA编辑提供了第二次评审。每个单元都有一个用于用户和作者的评论和实质性评论的站点，一个采用者的文件，以及一个针对这些特定材料的讨论组的链接。JOMA是图书馆的期刊。这是一份学术在线期刊，包含创新的基于网络的数学学习材料，关于这些材料的设计和使用的文章，关于学生使用在线材料学习的文章，对现有在线材料的调查以及其他相关文章。LCP是商业上可获得的数学及其应用学习材料的列表。每个列表包括出版信息、产品的简短描述、目录（如果合适）以及到出版商网站的链接以获取更多信息。MATHDL项目与其他数字图书馆密切合作。特别是，与Math Forum的密切联系将MATHDL与Project NEEDS、ENC和许多其他组织联系起来。通过SMETE.org联盟的多轨道工作，MATHDL计划提供联合搜索、用户分析和公共元数据。他们计划与这些组织合作，寻求解决老化材料管理问题的办法。

MATHDL is an online library of independently reviewed mathematics learningmaterials at the undergraduate level. MATHDL is a collaborative project of theMathematical Association of America (MAA) and the Math Forum. The MAA provides content oversight, materials acquisition and selection, policies, and generaladministration. Math Forum oversees development of the user interface and manages allplatforms needed to host MATHDL content and serve pages. Math Forum plans to hostmoderated discussion groups for each unit listed in the library. Significant co-funding of this project is being provided by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities in the NSF Directorate of Mathematical and Physical Sciences in recognition of the importance of a digital library collection of learning resources in the mathematical sciences.MATHDL is divided into three parts: The Library of Online Mathematics and Its Applications (LOMA), The Journal of Online Mathematics and Its Applications (JOMA), and The Library of Commercial Products (LCP). LOMA contains free online learning materials that have been class tested and reviewed. These materials have been tested with students, submitted with a peer review, and provided with a second review by the LOMA editors. Each unit has a site for the reviews and substantive comments by users and authors, a file of adopters, and a link to a moderated discussion group focused on these particular materials. JOMA is the journal of the library. It is a scholarly online journal that contains innovative new Web-based learning materials in mathematics, articles on the design and use of such materials, articles on student learning using online materials, surveys of existing online materials, and other related articles. LCP is a listing of commercially available learning materials in mathematics and itsapplications. Each listing includes publication information, a short description of theproduct, a table of contents (where appropriate), and a link to the publisher's site for more information. The MATHDL Project works closely with other digital libraries. In particular, the close association with Math Forum connects MATHDL to Project NEEDS, ENC, and a host of others. Through the multi-track work of the SMETE.org alliance, MATHDL plans to offer federated searches, user profiling, and common metadata. They plan to cooperate with these organizations in the search for solutions to the problem of curation of aging material.
