Math Teacher Link is a website designed to deliver professional development opportunities and classroom resources to teachers of mathematics, statistics, and related subjects at the high school and lower division college levels.

Math Teacher Link provides:

Time-Flexible Course Modules and Interactive Tutorials

Features of the Course Module Program

  • Teachers can complete the modules at home or at school within flexible time schedules that they help to select!
  • Each module includes a required classroom unit created by the participating teachers for use in their classes and schools!
  • Teachers can choose from a growing list of course modules to fit their needs and interests!
  • Teachers can register on-line for Math Teacher Link course modules for Graduate Credit or Continuing Education Credit from the University of Illinois. They can also register as guests of the program for certain course modules.

Graduate credit or Continuing Education Credit registrants will be provided with individual instructional and technical support services, a copy of the Math Teacher Link Handbook, and a login and password that is required for use of the Module Working Environment.

Guest registration for the Course Modules is free to mathematics teachers as a service to the profession.  Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to provide instructional and technical support, the handbook, or access to the Module Working Environment for guest registrants.

Classroom Resource Bank

Here we have assembled classroom resources that we believe can be very useful to teachers of mathematics, statistics, and related subjects at the high school and lower division college levels. The Classroom Resource Bank is organized by course topics and instructional strategies to simplify access for teachers.

Math Teacher Link visitors can use this facility to:

  • link to a variety of web sites that are of interest to math teachers, and that change daily or weekly.
  • learn about recent or upcoming events for math teachers, or about changes in the MTL web site.

Message Board

The Math Teacher Link Message Board is an excellent way for users of our site to communicate. You can add a message about an interesting site that you would like to share with others, or you can ask questions or pose problems for response by other teachers who visit Math Teacher Link!

Module Working Environment

The Math Teacher Link Module Working Environment is the place where you can submit your module assignments, pick up your graded module assignments, and check on your progress with module work. The working environment will also contain a message board for use only by users who are registered for Graduate or Continuing Education credit, a chat room, and many other outstanding features. You will be issued a login and password to access this system ONLY after you complete your enrollment in a module with the Division of Extramural Programs.
