editHey, thanks for all the work on this everyone! Out of Phase User (talk) 17:08, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Notability
editProject MATHEMATICS! is a series of educational videos. It is notable in the fact that the National Science Foundation (NSF) reviewed the project, found it beneficial and funded it. NSF grant No. MDR 8850730
It is also notable in that teachers across the United States use it to teach millions of students about mathematics. In addition to being used in the classroom, it has been shown on Public Television across the United States as well as shown on NASA Television. The National Teachers Training Institute (NTTI) suggests it to teachers that teach mathematics.

Many sites use this series of videos but do not always cite that it is Project MATHEMATICS!. Therefore I am adding the following Google search link for the term "The Story of Pi" which is a part of this series. Search for "The Story of Pi"

Spelling, grammar and phrasing
editI just completed a major overhaul of the entire article and could use some help on spelling, grammar and phrasing. The basic information is there it just needs some tweaking. 64.40.62.102 (talk) 00:56, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
References and formatting
editCited references for things that are stated as facts. Having great problems figuring out the format of the material between the "ref" tags. Also, Not sure if the formatting of the entire article is up to spec.
Finally found it.
