American Mathematical Society
Interesting sections are mathematical moments, mathematics imagery and nice printable posters. Please don't visit this site to download tons of activities but to get info and insight on the nature of mathematics and mathematics teaching - something very critical and is completely missing from our curriculum.

Description:
Founded in 1888 to further mathematical research and scholarship, the American Mathematical Society fulfills its mission through programs and services that promote mathematical research and its uses strengthen mathematical education, and foster awareness and appreciation of mathematics and its connections to other disciplines and to everyday life.

Selected features:
Maths awareness: The AMS Public Awareness Office works with the media, scientific societies, institutes, universities, and museums to promote awareness of mathematics and to publicize meetings, events, prizes, and AMS activities.
The Mathematical Moments program promotes appreciation and understanding of the role mathematics plays in science, nature, technology, and human culture. You can download this series of pdf files to use as teaching resources and to promote awareness of mathematics to students, colleagues, and attendees at meetings and special events.
Math Imagery : Images of Chaim Goodman-Strauss (University of Arkansas), many from The Symmetries of Things by John H. Conway, Heidi Burgiel, and Goodman-Straus (AK Peters, 2008), have been added to the Mathematical Imagery page.
AMS Printable Posters: The American Mathematical Society provides downloadable pdf files of posters promoting awareness of mathematics and of programs and services to post in common areas, in classrooms and offices.
