ADA Project

ADA Project is an open mathematics textbook, which is always being updated and expanded. ADA is after Ada Lovelace- a Mathematician and the writer of the world’s first machine algorithm for an early computing machine that existed only on paper. The ADA Project aims to evolve mathematics online. Naming it after Ada Lovelace seemed relevant.
The website will evolve online, using the resources of the internet to aid learning.
Every question can have an easy to find answer, a more indepth solution and a video explanation. Every question is linked to a forum, where there is an opportunity to discuss. (Source: Ada Project. About us)

World AIDS Day. Resources for teachers

World AIDS Day, designated on 1 December every year since 1988, is a day dedicated to raising awareness of the AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV infection and mourning those who have died of the disease.
