These courses are designed for teachers seeking certification renewal and professional development. GRADUATE CREDIT is available for all courses through Portland State University. Registration for all courses is through Adventures In Education. Our Mission: Our high quality GDL courses allow you to develop new, creative and interactive approaches to teaching. The often heard question, "What is this stuff good for" is met head on. You will engage in a variety of stimulating and fun classroom activities that you can take directly back to your classroom and immediately apply. These courses will instill an overall appreciation of the discipline, and an exposure to the subtlety and variety of its many facets: problems, ideas, methods, solutions, etc. The connection between the discipline and down-to-earth, concrete real-life problems is direct and immediate. The activities will also prompt classroom discussion, generate lesson plans, provide new ideas for instructional techniques and suggest topics for research projects and term papers. You owe it to yourself to review our courses now!! What are Guided Distance Learning (GDL)Courses?

Graduate Credit: Graduate credit is available for each course/workshop through Portland State University. The total cost varies with the number of credit hours for each course/workshop. For those applying for graduate credit, please see the graduate credit section on the bottom of each course/workshop description. Quarter graduate credits transfer to an institution on semesters according to the institution's semester equivalency. Most colleges/universities convert quarter graduate credits to semester graduate credits using a factor of 2/3, i.e. 3 quarter graduate credits are equivalent to 2 semester graduate credits. Enrollment is limited to 8 credits per term unless officially admitted to PSU (except Summer term when enrollment is limited to 16 graduate or 21 undergraduate credits). See www.pdx.edu for more information.
