Abstract
The Virtual Math Teams (VMT) project is an effort to promote interest in mathematics by teenagers around the world in a way that is not necessarily linked with formal schooling. It invites people to meet online in small groups of about three to six participants to chat about mathematics. The Math Forum, which hosts VMT, is a leading online site for math information and services, which has grown during the past 15 years to now serve several million visitors a month. While it offers a variety of math-related resources, the Math Forum had not featured a strong, ongoing collaborative learning service until VMT.
