The Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes (NMSSI) offer fellowships for graduate mathematics and pedagogy courses that are in a weeklong format to help you take advantage of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's professional development opportunities conveniently and affordably. TEAC 880E: Teaching Mathematics with Technology for grades 7-12 teachers of mathematics will be offered in Scottsbluff this summer.
Fellowships worth $300 are available now to help pay for tuition! Apply here: http://go.unl.edu/scimathapply
As follows are the course dates, times and description for the Scottsbluff course at ESU 13:
