Describe the project or task Discovery Education helped with:

I am an English teacher and needed a good lesson to teach the background of "Of Mice and Men". Discovery Education had several great lessons about the 1930's and the Dust Bowl. I was able to find a worksheet and a video that was high interest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Discovery Education?

The best part of this program is the plethora of activities and resources. In a classroom where differentiated instruction is important because you have so many different learning styles, it is important to have a variety of materials that engage all students. Some of the materials available include worksheets, lesson plans, videos, and graphs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Discovery Education?

I would like to have other subjects available, such as English Language Arts. As of now, materials are offered for Math, Science, Technology, and Social Studies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
Describe the project or task Discovery Education helped with:

My cyber school is using Discovery Education Inc as an OER (open education resource) in various courses. The site provides an easy way to search for various content with many filters including grade level, type of content, and academic subject. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Discovery Education?

I love that Discovery Education Inc provides many different types of content- video, audio, picture, text, etc. The site is extremely user friendly. You can save content to your profile as well as organize any saved content into folders. This is extremely useful for teachers who teach multiple grade levels and/or subjects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Discovery Education?

Some content is a bit outdated, especially in the subjects of the arts and humanities. In addition, I am unsure when new content is added in my area. I wish that there was an option to receive a notification when new content is available in a specific subject or grade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Discovery Education:

I recommend Discovery Education Inc for the STEM subjects as there is a lot of various content. For the Arts and Humanities, there is a good amount of content but some is very outdated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Discovery Education helped with:

I like using this website to supplement lessons - great videos to enhance what I'm teaching. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Discovery Education?

The videos are great. It's a nice go to when supplementing videos for lessons. I know that they will be school appropriate and geared for furthering education on the topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Discovery Education?

Not a fan of the reading assignments. There aren't usually questions to go along, so I end up having to create those. It would be nice if there were more reading assignments with canned questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Discovery Education:

Maybe ask teachers to help write up lesson plans/questions to go along with not only readings/passages but also videos so there is an accountability piece already worked into them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
