Our collection includes original content from Discovery Education and carefully selected resources from trusted education producers, associations, agencies, and like-minded news, entertainment, and sports brands. Everything is specially curated to help educators find exactly what they need and to be accessible to all students. When we review and select content, our end goal is ensuring only the most engaging, relevant, and highest quality ends up in the classroom. We conduct viewing parties for each content selection to ask ourselves these questions: Does the content align to today’s classroom and instructional needs? Does the content inspire student agency and appeal to youth culture? Can students see themselves in the content? Are they part of the conversation? Can this content be accessed by all students? How Content Evolves To maintain the high quality and timeliness of our growing library of content, we move each resource through an evolutionary cycle and listen intently to educator feedback to improve the discoverability of fresh resources. Our team is poised to leap into action when timely resources are needed to address what’s going on in the lives of students: whether it’s responding to global crises, helping classrooms tackle difficult conversations, or staying updated on the latest educational practices. No matter what, educators can rely on us for safe, relevant, and engaging content and resources. Access a virtual demo to learn how Discovery Education can activate curiosity with all learners.
