Its Mathematics Pathway and Science Pathway present standards-based publications that take an in-depth look at teachable concepts in math and science. All resources are examined with the following criteria in mind: content of the resource is accurate; it promotes student learning; it aligns with one or more national math and/or science education standards; it is grade-level appropriate; it promotes equity and access; and the resource is easily navigable. A blog called Connecting News to National Science Education Standards encourages science teachers to integrate current events into their instruction. Users can also search or browse by subject lists and register to be notified when new content is posted to the site.

Users may define any right triangle. The applet shows the square constructed on each of the triangle's three sides; it then divides each of the squares constructed on the legs into pieces. Students must move the pieces and reassemble them inside the square constructed on the hypotenuse to prove to themselves that the area of the two smaller squares is the same as the area of the larger square.
