Supporting teachers through its video library, professional development courses and coaching collaboration
In today’s fast-paced educational landscape, Teaching Channel by K12 Coalition is leading the way in providing innovative tools and resources for educators. At the heart of this mission is a dedication to improving teacher practice through integrated, high-quality online content accessible 24/7. As Mike Smith, president of Teaching Channel, explains, “Everything we do comes from the lens of the teacher. Our goal is to support their growth and ultimately drive student achievement and impact.”
Teaching Channel offers a robust video library featuring more than 2,000 classroom videos that showcase real teaching scenarios. It films in diverse classrooms across the country, capturing everything from urban to rural settings, and covering all grade levels and subjects. This extensive content provides educators with valuable insights into the daily realities of teaching.
Professional development is another cornerstone of Teaching Channel’s approach. The platform provides more than 300 courses designed by educators for educators to help teachers stay ahead in their profession. The courses enable teachers to apply their learning in the classroom the very next day, as well as assist them in fulfilling their professional development and license renewal requirements.
One of the most innovative features of the platform is its coaching collaboration tools, which enable teachers to record their classroom practice, share it with mentors and receive feedback. Smith likens this opportunity to professional athletes watching game footage to improve their performance.
Working with other education advocates, such as the nonprofit organizations KDP (Kappa Delta Pi) and Educators Rising, Teaching Channel has ambitious goals. “We want to be a household name, supporting every public and charter school in the country,” Smith envisions. “Our mission is simple: to be the trusted, must-have partner for educators everywhere.”
By providing accessible, real-time solutions, Teaching Channel ensures that teachers are not only supported but also inspired to reach new heights in their teaching careers.
