As a result of the NeSA-M, Nebraska's first statewide mathematics assessment, mathematics teachers at all grade levels are looking for new learning opportunities that support them in offering high quality mathematics courses to their students. The Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes (NMSSI) offer graduate mathematics and pedagogy courses using a teacher-friendly delivery model that helps teachers respond to this challenge.
Please encourage teachers in your middle or high school to consider registering for a course by forwarding to them this email highlighting courses for grades 6-8, 6-12 or 9-12, or send them to our website, http://scimath.unl.edu/nmssi, where they can browse the course catalog.
Courses offered at nine locations across the state are described in the three articles below. Teachers can apply for the NMSSI Fellowship to assist them with the cost of tuition. The fellowship application site is the last step in the enrollment process, which can be found summarized in four simple steps on our Web page: http://scimath.unl.edu/nmssi.
