You can download math problems from the Internet and print them out on paper.
Many high schools and colleges now offer online math and science classes. The way students submit answers to math questions is generally simple. If there is only one possible numerical answer, then a multiple-choice assignment easily serves the purpose. Students might also want to work problems in the traditional way--paper, pencil and calculator--then submit their answers online. If you are more comfortable with doing math on paper, you can use a few techniques to capture and download math problem from the Internet.
Instructions
1. Use the "Save" feature in your Internet browser to download webpages displaying math problems. To take Mozilla's Firefox browser as an example: Click on "File" then "Save Page As" to download and store the webpage to your hard drive. Experiment with the various save options to see which best displays your math problem. In Firefox, "Web Page, Complete" saves most of the images and pictures on a webpage, which is helpful when your math subject matter includes geometric problems.
2. Press the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard in Windows to capture the math problem. Click "Start." Type "WordPad" in the search box at the bottom of the "Start" menu, then press "Enter." Press "Ctrl" and "V" to paste an image of the math in the WordPad document. Save the document to your hard drive. If the math problem is long, where you must use the scroll bar to see the rest of the problem, then you will need to repeat these steps to capture all parts of the problem.
3. Install and use an Internet browser add-on that captures the math problem from the webpage. As an example, the "Scrapbook" add-on for the Firefox browser uses a simple drag and drop function to save webpages. Webpage files can be stored on your hard drive, but you can open Scrapbook in a side pane in the Firefox browser. You can then organize your downloaded math problems, similar to how you would organize your math homework in a notebook. You can create your own organization structure by creating folders for such things as chapters and days.
4. Record the math problem(s) on the webpage(s) as still images, similar to the "Print Screen" function. As an example, Microsoft offers the "Problem Steps Recorder" in Windows that takes snapshots as users move about the PC. Although this is primarily intended for the documentation of system problems, it will work for this purpose as well. The Problem Steps Recorder saves all of the snapshots of math problems as you view and interact with them on webpages. It is saved as one file on the hard drive.
