Discovery Education streaming is the only educational, digital video-based learning resource shown to increase student achievement.
But don’t take our word for it. Two random-assignment, control group studies —- one conducted in rural Virginia, the other in urban Los Angeles -— have revealed significant improvement in social studies, science, and math performance for students exposed to video content from Discovery Education streaming.
As a result of these evaluations, Discovery Education executives have been invited to Washington, D.C., to convey the results to the House Committee on Education and the Workforce -- and to present the findings at U.S. Department of Education Technology Summits and various state and national education technology conferences around the country.
We would be happy to tell you about them, too.
