Would you like to help K-12 students develop realistic dreams for fabulous future careers? If you have a sense of humor, a sense of wonder, and little time to give each month, then Edheads is the place for you! Edheads is a 501c3 non-profit organization that ties K-12 classroom curricula to real world challenges and careers by providing free games to teachers, students and parents. We are also developing new content that is not game-based. We need people to help write and edit the new content. There are several types of content to choose from. This position starts with a phone interview, then assuming you want to move on, you would be asked to help generate ideas for content, write up other's ideas or some combination of both. You can also edit other's writing and help improve the content in general. While there are no specific deadlines for this content, we do ask for regular check ins, to keep things moving forward.
