Summary of the Communication Standard The Communication Standard in the PSSM clearly states the importance of communication in mathematics. On page 59, it states, “Instructional programs from pre-kindergarten through grade 12 should enable all students to: National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. (2000). //Principles and standards for school mathematics.// Reston, VA.: NCTM. media type="custom" key="10727452" []
 * [|ISTI Standards for teachers and students]**
 * organize and consolidate their mathematical thinking through communication;
 * communicate their mathematical thinking coherently and clearly to peers, teachers, and others;
 * analyze and evaluate the mathematical thinking and strategies of others;
 * use the language of mathematics to express mathematical ideas precisely.”
 * How can I use Web 2.0 in Mathematics:** Here are a few tools you will try today:


 * [|Vocaroo] - Voice Recording service: students can easily share their ideas about math
 * [|Voki]- "Free" Speaking Avatar
 * [|Voki Handout] and [|Voki In The Classroom]
