I just want to take a minute and share how impressed I am with Fund for Teachers! What an incredible organization. They are literally sending K-12 teachers all over the globe this summer for professional learning experiences that these hundreds of teachers self-created. They have a lot to manage on their end at Fund for Teachers! They have a huge financial investment to manage, major reporting and document gathering to do, and they share and write about it on Facebook, Tumblr, and elsewhere. Their goal is to provide meaningful professional development for teachers who will then take this learning back to the classroom, engaging students in a more meaningful way! The world needs more organizations like Fund For Teachers! I am so proud to be a Fellow. It's truly one of the most exciting aspects of my life thus far. Read about Fund for Teachers at:
