Verizon Foundation's flagship education program, MarcoPolo, and the Verizon Literacy Network have merged to become the Foundation's signature digital learning platform, Thinkfinity.org.

IOES is a Thinkfinity Rollout Partner Organization that provides the local infrastructure to share the program throughout Illinois. The Verizon-Thinkfinity Program (http://www.thinkfinity.org/home.aspx) offers high-quality, standards-based Internet resources across the disciplines designed to integrate into the curriculum. IOES and Thinkfinity have agreed to work together to deliver Thinkfinity training to educators in Illinois.

Thinkfinity.org is the Verizon Foundation’s free, comprehensive program and online portal to 55,000 educational resources, including standards-based, lesson plans for teachers and interactive tools and materials for students in grades K-12, provided in partnership with many of the nation’s leading educational and literacy organizations.

The Thinkfinity partner web sites offer resources across all grade levels and multiple curriculum areas: Arts, Economics, Humanities, Mathematics, Reading and Language Arts, Science and Geography.

For additional information about Thinkfinity or training opportunities, contact Debbie Potts at dpotts@ioes.org or by phone at 217-786-3010 x233.
