Overview
This grant will support On Teaching, a journalism and oral history project led by "The Atlantic", which will collect and synthesize insights from a diverse range of educators who spent a lifetime working in public schools. The goal is to give voice to some of the country’s most distinguished and seasoned teachers on a range of topics that challenge classroom teachers today, such as teaching effectively in diverse classrooms, creating safe and respectful climates for learning, and teaching for understanding. On Teaching will allow classroom teachers to describe what they do in their own words, share the lessons and challenges they faced along the way, and speak about the purposes and values of public education.

for The New Rules: Exploring the policies, people, and ideas reshaping the global economy

By broadening the terms of the debate and diversifying the voices that contribute to it, The Atlantic will focus attention on the critical question of how the economy can better serve the needs of ordinary people. This grant maintains editorial independence for the Atlantic's newsroom.
