NSDL Online Workshops
http://mathforum.org/nsdl_mathtech/
The Math Forum has been hosting a series of online workshops
for teachers who work with students in 5th through 9th grade.
Teachers will explore the Math Tools digital library and
several software tools that contribute in some way to
mathematical understanding, problem solving, reflection and
discussion.
Applications are now open for:
- Using Technology and Problem Solving to Build Algebraic Reasoning
- Overview

Currently the $100 workshop fees are paid for participants by a
grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF). For a fee of
$25 to cover administrative costs, 1.5 Continuing Education
Units (15 contact hours) can be provided in the form of a
certificate from the Drexel University School of Education to
any participants who meet the minimum requirements.
