Teachers Without Borders

Description

Teachers Without Borders (TWB) was founded in 2000 to connect teacher leaders to information and each other so that they can play a more vital role in their local communities - on a global scale. TWB provides courses (free OER and paid through our partnership with Johns Hopkins University's School of Education) and professional development for teachers, as well education initiatives through schools, Ministries of Education, and global agencies. Partners include the W.F. Hewlett Foundation, Cisco, and The Organization of American States.
