Grants Support Teachers Pushing Blended and Online Learning

By Dian Schaffhauser, THE Journal

One teacher is developing open physics curriculum; another is evolving a tutoring program in a blended format; and a third is working on competency-based math lessons. All three of these instructors, alongside several others, have been the recipients of teacher grants from the Foundation for Blended and Online Learning intended to help them continue creating or expanding personalized learning programs that incorporate blended and online learning components. The foundation is a charitable organization set up by K12, an education technology company that produces online curriculum for schools and families. Educators from 33 states submitted proposals for grant amounts of up to $10,000, according to Amy Valentine, the organization’s executive director.
