The Discovery Educator Network
(DEN) Blog is the home base for a collection of more than twenty
regional blogs, each working to fulfill the promise of teacher synergy.
The idea behind the cable network’s Educator
program is to "connect teachers to their most valuable resource — each
other." It’s great to see science education enhanced through such a
thoughtful use of blogs, discussion boards, pdf’s, streaming media,
calendaring, and, more fundamentally, a keen sense of how powerful
communities can be formed online. If you are an educator who sometimes
feels separated from others in your discipline, check out the video introduction to the network or browse the DEN blogs themselves to get a picture of how powerful a little asynchronous media can be.

Dollar Philanthropy

Not
every person has Warren Buffett’s 37 Billion Dollars to donate to a
good cause. However, each of us can donate a buck (which is way less
that that fancy coffee you get every morning) and make a difference.
Together, all donating a dollar, we can make a huge difference.
