Hacking Education with Donors Choose #hackedu

featured   giving   hackedu  

Amazingly, donorschoose.org makes hacking education easy.  I see these projects as micro-startups, bootstrapping, hacking and finding creative ways to educate kids.

The notes below were written to me by students of a Donors Choose project I helped with, "FlipCams for Hispanic Students".  Their teacher is using the Cams to enhance their learning of English.  I relate to these kids.  I learned english after entering first grade... sink-or-swim.

I've set up a Giving Page for projects where Reading is encouraged or Technology is applied in creative ways.  Click and donate...  If you find a cool project, let me know and I'll post it on my giving page.
