The Toyota International Teacher Program offers fully-funded, international, professional development opportunities for educators. Funded by Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., the program aims to advance environmental stewardship and global connectedness in U.S. schools and communities through creative, interdisciplinary and solution-based teaching methods.Participants are selected through a competitive application and selection process. Recipients of the award participate in a two-week overseas study tour, during which they explore environmental and educational themes through a variety of site visits, lectures, panel discussions and collaborative projects.
More than 500 U.S. teachers have participated in the program since it began in 1998, with educational tours to the Galapagos Islands, Costa Rica and Japan.
The 25 teachers selected for the 2009 Toyota International Teacher Program to Costa Rica traveled April 18 - May 2, 2009 to San José, Guácimo, La Fortuna, and Monteverde.
