Euclid's Elements
A Java-based, online version of the Elements. This is not really a lesson, it's a whole geometry curriculum; the one used for last couple thousand years. You can interact with the drawings for each proposition, grabbing points and rearranging the graphs. This is an exciting example of a classic text meeting with the new technology.
 
Web Pisces
An interactive site that allows particpants to play with curves and graphs that have singularities.
 
Quasitiler
The Quasitiler is an interactive online application that allows students to play with tilings by changing numerical inputs and veiw perspectives. An excellent site and resource for tiling lessons.
 
Richard Hawkin's Digital Archive
This site is full of 3D Geometry Quicktime Movies. They are great for classroom presentation as well as student observation. The movies are of very high quality.
 
Fractals and tessellations
An excellent display of tesselation and fractal graphics by students at Thomas Jefferson Junior High School in Salt Lake City, Utah. The graphics print well for class handouts or overhead transparencies. The students' teacher, David Bradley, describes the lesson that led to the projects.
