Possibly Related Classroom Projects

Download the plugin here! Please read our launch post here!

"Possibly Related Classroom Projects" enables you to share relevant classroom projects from DonorsChoose.org based on the content of your posts.

DonorsChoose.org is an online community devoted to helping teachers fund classroom projects that will help their students learn and succeed. Teachers propose projects, which anyone can then choose to help fund and bring to life. DonorsChoose.org has over 14,000 active proposals.

“Possibly Related Classroom Projects” makes it super easy to connect your readers to relevant classroom projects in need of help.

You'll be amazed at the relevancy of many of these classroom projects to your posts (as well as the awesome and imaginative projects that are happening in classrooms around the US).

"Possibly Related Classroom Projects" is a project of Social Actions Labs.  Joe Solomon and Eric Cooper led the project with direction from Peter Deitz and support from Christine Egger and the entire Social Actions team.
