Abstract : You may recall the “April Fool's” Technology Tips column published during the 2004-2005 school year in which Todd Lee and his colleagues described some pranks that technology regularly plays on its users. In this month's tip, Larry Lesser and his students respond to these tips and add more possible technology pitfalls to the list. Lesser's examples use TI graphing calculators, Microsoft Excel, Mathematica, and InFocus projection devices. The “Surfing Note” this month includes a link to a large collection of interactive Java-based course materials for exploration in mathematics and science.—Eds.
