Moving to Mathematics
Are you a mathematics teacher in the state of Pennsylvania? The Math Forum @ Drexel is offering a series of on-line professional development courses--wholly funded by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE)--that will prepare you to pass the Mathematics Praxis II.

Online Master's in Mathematics Learning and Teaching
Drexel University's online program prepares teachers to incorporate creative, problem-based, student-centered instruction in their classroom, combining the strengths of Drexel University's School of Education and the Math Forum. Part- or full-time options are available. Take the full 45-credit course of study for the Master's, or get a 15-credit Certificate of Graduate Study.
