Discovery Digital Streaming Teacher Tools

The teacher tools in Discovery Digital Streaming are very useful. I can see how the Assignment Builder, Quiz Builder, Lesson Plan Library, Writing Prompt Builder, Calendar, and Interactive Atlas are all excellent tools for teachers to use to create exciting and effective lessons for students. I think that students would greatly enjoy working with these tools and, because of the engaging and interactive nature of the digital medium, would learn a great deal. There is great potential here. One component I was a little disappointed with was the few lessons that were pre-made by Discovery Education (assuming I searched correctly...which may not be true due to my being a novice at this). Perhaps over time they will be adding more. Is there a way to save all assignments and lesson plans into "My Content"? All in all, I am very pleased with what I have discovered about Discovery Digital Streaming.

Digital Streaming Rocks!

I had a great time in my digital streaming class last night. I came in just knowing the very basics about Discovery digital streaming. I had only seen a couple of demonstrations in the past, but had not had the opportunity to get in there and "discover" things for myself. Wow! I was very impressed. In the short time we were in class, I found videos (some with lesson plans, ties to state standards, and handouts!) on teaching library lessons on the Dewey Decimal System, reading lessons on word decoding, and math lessons on area/perimeter and probability (what are the chances of that?). I am looking forward to discovering more.
