You might want to look into MathMagic. That is a structured format for
having students work together and cooperate on the solution of problems. You
can get lots of information about registration from the gopher on
forum.swarthmore.edu .
I am running a new course this year called Experimental Math 11. It is the
only math class scheduled in the Math Computer Lab and students work on
various investigations choosing the most appropriate software for their
work. One recent problem was "Find and explain the fixed points in the
graphs of the family of cubics  y = 2x^3 - (3p+6)x^2 + 12px."
Forthcoming projects will require them to write Interactive Mathematics
Texts unsing Mathwright, a further development of the Mathkit Libaries used
in IBM's Toolkit for Interactive Mathematics, which recently won an award
from Technology and Learning. They will also do experiments using Geometer's
Sketchpad and with Data Analysis.
I will pass on your request to the students in this class.
