Newsela donations received

This is an online portal with information on donations that were announced publicly (or have been shared with permission) that were of interest to Vipul Naik. The git repository with the code for this portal, as well as all the underlying data, is available on GitHub. All payment amounts are in current United States dollars (USD). The repository of donations is being seeded with an initial collation by Issa Rice as well as continued contributions from him (see his commits and the contract work page listing all financially compensated contributions to the site) but all responsibility for errors and inaccuracies belongs to Vipul Naik. Current data is preliminary and has not been completely vetted and normalized; if sharing a link to this site or any page on this site, please include the caveat that the data is preliminary (if you want to share without including caveats, please check with Vipul Naik). We expect to have completed the first round of development by the end of July 2024. See the about page for more details. Also of interest: pageview data on analytics.vipulnaik.com, tutorial in README, request for feedback to EA Forum.

Knight Foundation0.001--Technology, Journalismhttps://knightfoundation.org/grants/5011-- Grant period: 08/26/2014 - 08/26/2015; goal: News repurposed to promote reading education and literacy. Newsela unlocks the written word by publishing daily news articles at five reading levels to engage students in grades 3-12 in high-interest topics from immigration and diplomacy to drones and animal extinction. Students who read Newsela articles and take Common Core-aligned quizzes develop the critical thinking and nonfiction literacy skills needed for academic and professional success. When every student, regardless of reading level, is able to participate, teachers can engage the whole class in conversations about complex issues. Launched in 2013, Newsela has been one of the most quickly adopted educational technologies in history.
