TeachUp!
Harnessing the power of youth and technology to transform 21st century learning
Through TeachUp!, DOT is working to transform the traditional approach to learning by introducing a new teaching model that improves the quality of education, prepares students with 21st century skills, and creates a foundation for economic opportunities.
DOT recruits and trains college students and recent graduates to serve as TeachUp! Interns who work in schools to assist teachers and administrators in the implementation of modern technology to enhance their teaching methods.
The TeachUp! program supports the technology enablement of teachers in order to provide exceptional educational opportunities and improved learning outcomes for elementary, middle and high school students.
Delivering rich educational experiences
By integrating technology into learning through practical projects, DOT is helping to deliver a richer educational experience to students, teachers and administrators.
Who Benefits
Teachers and administrators are improving their use and confidence in new educational technologies and tools. More effective adoption of technology is being realized at the school and community levels.
TeachUp! Interns emerge with improved confidence, proven 21st century job skills and excellent employability.
The impact of TeachUp! is felt beyond the schools as enhanced student outcomes translate into more successful local communities.
Testament
"I am very proud to report that my school's teachers have collectively increased their knowledge of technology and resources. They have also begun to troubleshoot their own technological issues thanks to brief trainings that I scheduled and facilitated throughout the year" - DOT USA TeachUp! Intern
