Donors Choose
I heard about this organization on the radio, and I really like the concept.
http://www.donorschoose.org
You get to pick a specific project, chosen from hundreds in different cities and discipline areas, and fund that particular project. I love the hands on decision making. Too often I have no idea where my donations end up- and here I do.
I wonder if the website would let people - teachers- pool their resources on things like Kiless creticial education courses

Not by. But all my posts are spellchecked by Spectral Tarsiers. They have been lazy recently- bad tarsier, no banana (or whatever they eat). I meant critical thinking

then I'd defer to a forum member called Athon whose overarching program is designed to better implement critical thinking skills over a long-term basis rather than my eight/nine-week assignment outline. I'll have to PM him when he's not so busy.
