In last year’s Speak Up 2007 Report, Project Tomorrow’s annual survey of teachers, parents, and students focusing on technology in schools, teachers expressed a growing need for online professional development programs. The survey showed a 29% increase in teacher interest in online programs from the previous year. The National Science Teachers Association’s Learning Center offer teachers of all grade levels with training by experts in their fields. NSTA’s upcoming online course, Energy, Get the Facts So You Can Teach It, begins September 30th.
