October 25th, 2014: Free Day of
Professional Learning
Coming
to you LIVE from Discovery Headquarters in Silver Spring, MD, we
present the Discovery Education Streamathon!
We're taking you back to the 70's with a telethon-style, day-long
virtual professional learning event. Join thousands of educators across
the world for this free "idea-sharing" marathon where we will
get you diggin' some new, groovy ways to integrate Discovery Education
into your instruction.
Host
a 70's bash at your district pad to watch live-streamed presentations
by the Discovery team, cool videos and other edu-tainment.
·Share the love! Tweet about the event using the hashtag
#DEStreamathon. Let other educators in your district know about it so
they can participate too!
Out-of-Sight Presentations
Streamathon's
mission: to educate, inform and inspire you with ideas, knowledge, and
instructional strategies that you can put right back into action. Tune
into our variety show of presentations, from "50 Ways in 50
Minutes" focused on creative ways to use Discovery Education to
"Whose Board is it Anyway?" focused on student use of the
popular Board Builder tool. We'll sprinkle in edu-tainment
intermissions and audience participation throughout the day.
