The NTEN Mission: Professional Development
For K-12 Science Teachers Delivered Via The Internet

Created by Montana State University and funded by the National Science Foundation, the National Teachers Enhancement Network (NTEN) delivers quality teaching resources and professional development opportunities through the Internet directly to K-12 science teachers. Educators access electronic teacher resources, discuss issues with other educators online, and participate in high-quality graduate telecomputing courses, all from convenient home or work locations via the Internet. University scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and science educators teach NTEN's graduate courses. NTEN also enhances professional networking nationwide among science teachers and active research scientists.

NTEN commissioned an external evaluation gauging the quality and impacts of its courses. Read the report online:

Part One: Participant Satisfaction
Part Two: Cumulative Impacts

NTEN is created and managed by Extended University, Burns Technology Center in Bozeman, Montana. The Center pioneers initiatives and collaborations that use new technologies to meet learning challenges and enhance educational, business and personal growth.
