Educate.Today’s videos and supplemental curriculum materials have been developed by educators working in collaboration with notable individuals and exceptional national and local educational, cultural, scientific, business, and arts organizations to link students and the curriculum to individuals and organizations who apply that curriculum in real world experience.  That is, learners learn from professionals who do what the learner is studying.

Through this first-person perspective, both timely and historic topics are explored across the six primary disciplines of Arts, Arts Integration, Humanities, Social Sciences, STEAM/STEM, and Career Exploration and 56 sub discipline content areas.  Unique aspects of the types of videos available are described below.
