Learner.org

I just found Learner.org, a part of the Annenberg Foundation that provides a number of educational programs for free online. I haven't had a chance to sit down and watch any one the programs, but I am looking forward to many of them.

Video programs accessible online include:

America's History in the Making

The Art of Teaching the Arts: A Workshop for High School Teachers

Art of the Western World

The Arts in Every Classroom: A Video Library

Advancing Excellent Teaching in American Schools

Annenberg Media uses media and telecommunications to advance excellent teaching in American schools. This mandate is carried out chiefly by the funding and broad distribution of educational video programs with coordinated Web and print materials for the professional development of K-12 teachers. It is part ofThe Annenberg Foundation and advances the Foundation's goal of encouraging the development of more effective ways to share ideas and knowledge.

Annenberg Media's multimedia resources help teachers increase their expertise in their fields and assist them in improving their teaching methods. Many programs are also intended for students in the classroom and viewers at home. All Annenberg Media videos exemplify excellent teaching.
