An Educator, a mom and a female.
As starting my new initiative with Dalton, I will gradually migrate all content on this website to a new site - Alignment Edu. Please update your bookmarks and visit our new online home. We will share our passion of AI in Education, Learning Technologies and MakerEd on the new site with accessible resources.
I appreciate your understanding during this transition.
If you have any questions, I can be reached via alignment@alignmentedu.com. Thank you for your continued support!
Kind regards,
Cora Yang


Life On Land
Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.
A flourishing life on land is the foundation for our life on this planet. We are all part of the planet’s ecosystem and we have caused severe damage to it through deforestation, loss of natural habitats and land degradation. Promoting the sustainable use of our ecosystems and preserving biodiversity is not a cause. It is the key to our own survival.
