Tool for teaching maths online

Question

I'm trying to find a good tool for teaching someone maths online. Some kind of a online whiteboard that the student can be invited to.

I need to be able to draw graphs and handwrite using my drawing tablet. I also need to be able to type text and formulae.

Something with similar features to the Windows application iDroo would be great!

What online tool would be most suitable?

Answer 1

This seems to be pretty much perfect: http://www.twiddla.com/

It even has support for LaTeX!

http://www.skrbl.com/ seems pretty good too as a slightly more basic alternative.

Also, here's quite a good list of interactive whiteboard related links, many of them whiteboard webapps: http://www.shambles.net/pages/staff/intwhiteb/

Answer 2

An alternative in case you can't find anything what you're looking for -- Ustream your whiteboard or tablet.

Answer 3

• You could use Yahoo! Doodle.
• Check out Khan Academy as well, Sal has made hundreds of great videos and just recently improved the feedback/statistical system for the online exercises.
