Congratulations to Sanford Inspire, a free online program for teachers, and to the @starbucks College Achievement Plan for being selected as the winners of the #ASU President's Innovation Award! The Starbucks College Achievement Plan, a unique partnership between Starbucks and @arizonastateuniversity, aims to expand access to higher education. Under the initiative, Starbucks employees who work as little as 20 hours per week can finish a bachelor’s degree with full tuition reimbursement through any of ASU’s online undergraduate degree programs. There is no obligation for partners to stay at Starbucks after they graduate from ASU. Sanford Inspire, funded by the Denny Sanford Foundation, looks to remake professional development for teachers, who can log on any time they want and take courses in how to give clear directions on a task, integrating physical activity into a lesson, how to motivate students and dozens of other topics. Congratulations to both of these programs! #1innovation #...
