III. How Schools Are Using ProCon.org
|
3,755 schools in 50 states and 56 countries (that we know of, as of Apr. 16, 2013) had teachers and librarians who have used ProCon.org in their teaching and reference materials.
Those elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, colleges, and universities are listed below along with links to the lessons themselves whenever available.
We add schools to this list when we see that an educator (not a student) from that school has referenced ProCon.org, usually in a lesson plan, suggested resources list, social media reference to our content, published work, or as a response to our two-minute Teacher/Librarian Survey.
