Yes that's right, there is a "new" Discovery Education and you will want to check it out as soon as possible! Have you logged on lately to http://streaming.discoveryeducation.com/? If not, then you should ask yourself "why not"? You need to take advantage of this tremendous educational resource that our district provides for every teacher, student (and parent) that happen to be part of the Clay County School System. Let's take a look a closer look at what Discovery Education has to offer.
When you use the link provided above you will be taken to the Discovery Education login screen where you will see the "Subscriber Login" box near the top of the page (see the screen shot below). If you already know your username and password then by all means go ahead and log on so you can get started. If you have a DE account but can't remember your username and password, you can simply see your school Media Specialist for assistance. In this instance, please do not try to create another account. If you don't have a Discovery Education account, you can also see your school Media Specialist to obtain a passcode that is specifically for your particular school. When you're ready to register, simply click on the "Passcode/New User" link and input your passcode. It's as simple as that.
Whether you are logged in or not to the Discovery Education web site, you can take advantage of some of the "free" resources it has to offer. Scroll down to the very bottom of the login screen and you will see links to the following free resources:
