As 2023 approaches, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations depend on donations, and we are no different. We ARE different, however, in that with our mission to educate people about education we strive to “Preserve the past to inform the future.”   Our plans for the new year will be to continue our current strategy of posting trustworthy and informative articles. We also look forward to continue exhibition displays in new venues, and working on our long-awaited mobile exhibition about how to protect and enhance YOUR BABY’S AMAZING BRAIN.

All of us at the Museum of Teaching and Learning are deeply grateful for your involvement and support. Thank you! Each contribution of time or money makes a HUGE difference for us. Please help us continue to grow our collections and produce exhibitions, articles, and events to enact our mission—We educate people about education.

This year we’re sharing some updated data to reflect some of our work in 2022. Here you go. . .
