The Mathematics Department offers two online math courses each fall, spring, and summer. We recommend teachers limit themselves to taking one online course per fall or spring semester.
Web conferencing courses are also offered in the summer semesters, in two-week formats on Zoom. Both Nebraska and out-of-state teachers are welcome to attend. Summer courses also are listed each year as part of the Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes schedule. Teachers may take up to four summer courses, in a combination of asynchronous online, web conferencing (synchronous online), and in-person. Teachers can begin taking courses during any term (fall, spring, or summer). In-person courses are traditionally offered in various locations across Nebraska in the summer semesters.
TEAC courses listed below are math-focused for K-12 teachers, unless otherwise noted.
