Thanks to the NebraskaMATH OPS Teacher Leader Academy, funded by the Sherwood and Lozier foundations, OPS mathematics teachers have a unique opportunity to pursue graduate education at no cost to them! We want to bring to your attention to two mathematics classes and one STEM course in Omaha (rooms TBD at TAC) for middle-level and secondary teachers:
Math 811T: Functions for High School Teachers (Class # 13774), June 5-9 and 12-16, 8 a.m. – noon
CSCE 890: Robotics for Teachers (Class # 3249, permission code needed), June 5-9 and 12-16, 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.
Math 805T: Discrete Mathematics for Teachers (Class # 3229), July 17-21, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Read descriptions for these courses in the accompanying stories in this email.
Sherwood-Lozier Fellowships make it possible for OPS teachers to take these courses at no cost for tuition or fees. Lunch will be provided for participants. These courses count toward a master’s degree from UNL.
All NMSSI courses listed in our online course catalog are eligible for Sherwood-Lozier Fellowships: http://scimath.unl.edu/nmssi/2017
