Digital Wish
"Every teacher has the power to earn funding at Digital Wish. Like a wedding registry, teachers make their technology wishes public and tell their story, so that anyone can make a donation to their classroom's cart. Registered teachers will automatically qualify for 43 new technology grants from Olympus and Tool Factory, including a Mobile Digital Camera Lab. Grants are then awarded to the teachers with the best all-around class profile and lesson plans. Regardless of whether teachers win a grant,their story will be available for any potential donor to read, and later contribute to. The Digital Wish web site also features a library of grant links and fund raising resources to help educators find additional funding for technology. There is also an extensive library of lesson plans so that educators can find ideas for digital projects." (e-School News.com)
