Get ready for an impactful summer of professional development! This year, the Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes (NMSSI) are offering 14 engaging courses created specifically for K-12 math and science educators, using either an asynchronous online format ("on demand" style), a synchronous web conferencing format ("live" on Zoom), or in person. Whether you're looking to deepen your content knowledge or explore new teaching strategies, there's something for you.
The goal of NMSSI is to offer teachers of math and science intellectually rich graduate coursework that will enhance their ability to offer their students challenging courses and curricula. NMSSI courses are designed with teachers' schedules in mind.
