Teachers' Domain® is an expanding library of thousands of media resources—including video and audio segments, Flash interactives, images, and documents—perfect for the modern classroom where digital media is increasingly important to student learning and teacher on-going education. Registration for the service is free and easy at www.wtvp.org.

“WTVP has always been proud of its role as a provider of educational tools and support services, and is pleased to bring this valuable service to educators,” said Linda Miller, WTVP’s VP of Programming and Communication. “Teachers' Domain provides an easy-to-use and comprehensive source for innovative materials that will help K-12 teachers incorporate technology in the classroom and inspire students to learn.”

Teachers’ Domain’s expanding library is garnered from public television favorites—NOVA, Nature, Frontline, Cyberchase and more—and other trusted content partners such as NASA, NOAA and dozens of universities, museums and libraries. The service includes more than 5,000 support materials, lesson plans, and activities with both state and national standards correlations. And a social media feature allows users to personalize their experience, share information and upload their own material.
