Course Numbering

When you select your type of registration by clicking on the appropriate link below, you will be leaving the Math Teacher Link website and going to Academic Outreach's Registration website. All of the Math Teacher Link courses have a course number of Math 490 with the module number appended to the end of the Math 490. For example, at the MTL site, when you click on Using Geometer's Sketchpad for the module you are interested in, the MTL web site will show that as being module number 4. At the AO registration site, when taken for graduate credit, the course you will be registering for will be labeled Math 490 4. Courses taken for CEUs, which are not treated as transcript credit courses, have an NC behind them to stand for Non-Credit. So if you are taking Using Geometer's Sketchpad for graduate credit the course number is Math 490 4, if you are taking it for CEU credit the course number is Math 490 4 NC.

Graduate Credit
Graduate credit is from the University of Illinois and is transferable to other colleges. It is applicable to degree programs with approval of the college and department granting the degree. You do not have to be enrolled in a degree program at UIUC to enroll in these courses for graduate credit.

All courses except "Using the Internet" and "Computers and Connections" are available for graduate credit. See the individual course description to determine the number of units for each course.

Graduate credit for 2007/2008 is $320 per credit hour. MTL courses carry anywhere from 1 credit hour to 4 credit hours each. See the module descriptions for further information.

Students who wish to withdraw from the program may do so at any time during the course timeframe. Students must formally request to drop a course by completing and submitting a Change of Status form Tuition refunds and credits are processed according to the pro-rated refund policy, based on the date the course begins and the date on which we receive a student's formal drop request. Students have 10 weeks from their enrollment date in which to drop a course and still receive a partial refund. The refund policy is always effective, regardless of whether a student did or did not begin a course. The Academic Outreach administrative course fee is non-refundable. For questions about dropping NetMath courses and to verify eligibility for a partial tuition refund, contact Academic Outreach (phone: 800-252-1360 ext. 36305, email: More information may be found here..

CEU Registration
Continuing Education Units is a non-credit option, but it is often counted by school districts for district professional development requirements and incentives.

All courses are available for CEUs. See the course descriptions for the number of CEUs assigned to each course. The cost for CEUs is $150 for every 3 CEUs carried. The number of CEUs for each MTL course varies from 3 CEUs to 12 CEUs. Each Math Teacher Link CEU is equivalent to 5 contact/activity hours.

CTER Enrollment
The CTER Online Master Program in Education enrollment is restricted to students who have been admitted to that program. See the CTER site for further information on which courses are available and cost information.

Guest
Guest enrollment allows you to download the module for free, but you will receive no instructional or technical support because these services are subsidized by our enrollment income.
