Overview
The Teaching Channel provides a television and Internet video showcase of inspiring and effective teaching practices in America’s schools. It would use this general support to refine and expand its video offerings and professional development platform to more fully respond to teacher needs as they begin to implement the Common Core State Standards. To do this, Teaching Channel would (1) fill gaps in its video library to address key Common Core State Standards; (2) partner with the two testing consortia to create videos, materials, and other professional development opportunities to help teachers implement the new Common Core assessments; and (3) host the teacher instructional materials and tools developed by deeper learning grantees on its platform.
