Excerpt
Excerpt: As an educator today, you have complex and fascinating responsibilities. You are devoted to helping students acquire the academic knowledge and skills that prepare them for bright futures. You also guide our children?s personal and social development, helping students navigate the world safely so that young dreams can become grown-up realities. But where can you and your fellow teachers turn for support as you take on greater responsibilities and challenges? All of us have a stake in supporting your efforts. As a nation, we must all work together to seek new ways of reaching the hearts and minds of our students. Through educational renewal, curriculum innovations, and the development of public and private partnerships that address the needs of teachers, students, and communities, we can significantly increase opportunities for success and reduce the risk of failure before a crisis occurs. Connected Teaching was developed by Cable in the Classroom, the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD) and the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) to celebrate your creative efforts in the classroom. The video features four teachers who make innovative use of educational cable television and the Internet to connect their students to exciting learning opportunities dealing with core curriculum topics, the negative consequences of drug use, and positive alternatives to destructive behavior.
