Teacher Profiles & Student Work

Since 2007, the Qwest Foundation has been the generous funder of a competitive grant program that recognizes K-12 teachers who support their instructional practice with digital technologies. We spotlight these exemplary educators in a series of profiles that unpack their ideas and feelings about teaching and learning. Each profile outlines the learning project that led to the grant award and engages the teacher’s principal and technology director to impart real-time context to their reflections. CenturyLink acquired Qwest Communications in 2011 and continues to support this highly successful program.
