Last day to apply (July 24th): Microgrant for Teachers Centered Around Digital Learning

Through a partnership with WeAreTeachers.com, Dell is giving 10 teachers a $200 Microgrant and a Flip video camera.

The microgrant is centered around "Digital Learning." It is asking what innovative, creative, and original thoughts do you have about using technology to encourage digital learning in, or out, of the classroom?

The application is very short and the grant recipients are decided by the community. Meaning once voting opens, on July 27th, everyone in the WeAreTeachers community as well as all of your friends and colleagues can come and vote for your grant application. The 10 teachers who receive the most votes are awarded the grants.

The deadline to apply is July 24th by 5pm CST. To learn more or submit a grant idea Click Here. (Note: Applicants must create a profile on WeAreTeachers in order to have their application be eligible for voting.) Voting will open on July 27th at 8am CST.
