Teachers Without Borders is a nondenominational, nonprofit, international NGO dedicated to improving education in underserved areas through teacher professional development and learning centers. With funding from Cisco, Teachers Without Borders has created an open-source toolset that allows teachers around the world to collaborate by sharing their most effective classroom practices and pedagogical techniques.
The toolset offers modular, customized applications that integrate with offline environments such as print, CD, and radio. It also facilitates the use of shared educational materials online. The result is a cross-cultural dialogue among teachers that promotes high-quality learning and saves educational costs. More than 1330 teachers in Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Russia, and the United States are using the Teachers Without Borders toolset.
