I think that it is a wonderful opportunity for teachers to be able to provide state of the art education to students that the school district would otherwise not be able to afford. I am also grateful for TechCrunch to have chosen my grant to be on their website. Thanks for all you do to help teachers! We all appreciate it. Hi Everybody,

I have designed a classroom website to teach students the value of using blogs, wikis, forum discussions, and digital media to understand content.
