PBS TeacherLine has expanded its course schedule to six terms for its most popular and newest online courses.

TeacherLine offers facilitated online courses, collaborative learning communities, and online resources for teachers to earn continuing education units, professional development points, and graduate credits. The six-week courses take about 30 hours to complete.

The new terms are being added in the spring and summer and will include classes, such as:

• Children's Authors on the Web: Online Sites That Motivate Students to Write;
• Communication and Collaboration in the 21st Century;
• Curriculum Mapping 1 by Heidi Hayes Jacobs;
• Inspire Elementary Students with Engineering; and
• Enabling Students with Special Needs to Succeed in Math.

Enrollment is currently open for the late spring term beginning May 11, the early summer term set for June 22, and the late summer term, which will start August 10.
