Details:
Pre-K through 12th-grade teachers have the opportunity to pursue self-designed professional learning through a Fund for Teachers fellowship. Teachers decide what they want to learn and where they want to learn it. Their odysseys take them all over the world — as scientists, researchers, artists and agents of change — and they return to their classrooms with new ideas that transform student learning and achievement.
