Abstract

With the increased push for digital resources in mathematics education, it is increasingly necessary to develop the skills needed to navigate the ever-changing digital landscape of the World Wide Web. The purpose of this chapter is three-fold. First, we help the reader develop a better understanding of the digital landscape through discussion of the contributors and contributions of the entities developing digital resources in the field of mathematics education. Second, we consider means to successfully navigate the digital landscape by developing a better understanding of the machinations of the tools that are commonly used to seek out digital resources. Finally, we consider ways the reader can become more intelligent consumers of digital resources. We synthesize knowledge of stakeholders, resources, and search tools to help teachers and teacher educators develop the habits of mind that will help them seek out quality resources and relevant information in much in the same way as researchers do.
