Has anybody or is anybody considering HyperCard-izing a math course. I've been a HyperCard finatic for about 3 years, and have just started to think that such a thing might be possible, useful, and perhaps even $$profitable$$. Currently, I'm taking an Upper Division Abstract Algebra course and have found the format of a book rather limiting. For instance, I was doing a proof last night real late, and needed to look up the definition of a division ring. Two pages in the book were stuck together and it took me awhile to figure out that the definition of a division ring was between those pages. By the time I unstuck the pages, I'd lost the page with the proposition I was trying to prove! Seems like HyperCard could take care of a lot of this, and I might be willing to dedicate some time to making some of these stacks, IF there is interest. Oh well, please e-mail me with any of your thoughts Richard B. Hutchings Department of Information and Computer Science UC Irvine
