Educational Technology at IU13

Discovery Education is so much more than a resource for videos! Come learn about the exciting features of Discovery Education including but not limited to the interactive Atlas, Board Builder, Assignment Builder, Quiz Builder, Writing Prompt Builder, Assessment Manager, and other resources. This workshop will be presented by an official Discovery Education trainer who is ready to help you learn and explore all the other resources Discovery Education has to offer.

When is the last time you visited Discovery Education?  There are two newer features that I want to draw to your attention, Global Wraps and Board Builder.  Global Wraps are updated video segments of current events that are occurring all over the world.  Want to show some video footage of the State of the Union Address, the Polar Vortex, or the Olympics -  Global Wraps is your tool!  The latest one that was just uploaded is from 2/12/14, just two days ago, covering the US visit from the French President, US Farm Bill, US No Change for Immigration, and more from Switzerland, Syria, Russia, and the Marshall Islands.  Don't miss this great add on to your Discovery Education account!

IU13 Instructional Services is pleased to announce that we are now offering LDAP services for IU13 IMS (Instructional Media Services) member districts.  Through the use of LDAP, your teachers and students will receive users accounts in which they log in to Discovery Education using their regular school credentials.  We are excited to offer this service as one of your IMS membership benefits. 

All current "playlists" will roll over to the new accounts so teachers/students need not fear losing what they have already set up.
