This is our 5th year of funding HP Technology for Teaching grants for K12 teachers and Higher Education faculty around the world. By the end of 2008, HP will have supported more than 1000 schools and higher education institutions in 41 countries, where educators are using technology to redesign the learning experience of their students.
I am very pleased to announce our 2008 grant recipients…
- K-12 Schools – U.S. & Puerto Rico
- K-12 Leadership Schools – U.S.
- K-12 Schools – Canada
- K-12 Schools – Latin America (coming week of June 23)
- Higher Ed – North America
- Higher Ed Leadership – North America (coming June 30)
- Higher Ed – Europe, the Middle East, and Africa
- Higher Ed – Asia Pacific

As always, we received MANY more excellent proposals than we could fund. This made the selection process very challenging and competitive. We would like to extend our thanks to everyone who applied – and we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for all that you ALREADY do to help your students succeed…
