WeBWorK is a free, online homework system that has been shown to be effective in helping students learn mathematics. At present, it is somewhat technical to use. The goal of this project is to make it much easier for teachers to use WeBWorK so that it can have a positive impact on student learning at a variety of types of institutions.Intellectual Merit: The principal outcome of this project is the organization of a national library of homework problems coded into WeBWorK, and the development of software tools to facilitate easy access to this electronic library. Instructors teaching a variety of mathematics courses can search the library for problems of the type they want, and use a point-and-click interface to select specific problems for assignments. The project is testing and refining the software tools by partnering with community colleges.Broader Impact: The national WeBWorK problem library and the accompanying software are helping to promote teaching and enhance the infrastructure for education in mathematics. These are being freely available over the web. Moreover, the project is fostering faculty development of mathematics teachers around the country by making a new tool accessible to them for effectively teaching mathematics. The results of the project are being disseminated through workshops for teachers and presentations at conferences. It targets several conferences with different audiences comprised of mathematics teachers from different types of schools.

Webwork是一种免费的在线家庭作业系统，已被证明可以有效地帮助学生学习数学。目前，使用有些技术。该项目的目的是使教师更容易使用网络工作，以便对各种机构的学生学习产生积极影响。IntlectualFure：该项目的主要结果是编码为网络工作的国家家庭作品库的组织，以及软件工具的开发，以促进该电子图书馆的易于访问。教授各种数学课程的讲师可以在库中搜索所需类型的问题，并使用点击接口接口为作业选择特定问题。该项目正在通过与社区大学合作来测试和完善软件工具。Broader的影响：国家网络工作问题库和随附的软件正在帮助促进教学和增强数学教育基础设施。这些是通过网络免费提供的。此外，该项目正在通过使他们可以访问他们有效教授数学的新工具来促进全国数学教师的教师发展。该项目的结果正在通过教师和演讲的研讨会来传播。它与不同类型学校的数学教师组成的不同受众群体定向了几次会议。
