For those TV12 viewers and 91FM listeners who would like more information on what's available regarding WHYY's many educational resources, allow me to suggest a few World Wide Web sites to visit.
Start with WHYY's Home Page, which you can visit at: http://whyy.org. Here, you'll find a number of links concerning activities at WHYY, but be sure to take a look at WHYY's Educational Services (at http://whyy.org/education_index.html). This page will lead you to several WHYY endeavors, such as the Delaware Valley Distance Learning Consortium, the Foundation for Architecture's Architecture In Education Project, the Edison High School/Fareira Skills Center student web publishing project, the joint project with Philadelphia Strawberry Mansion schools, and the Delaware Mathline Project.
In addition, WHYY's Ready To Learn Web page (at http://whyy.org/rtl.html) has recently been improved and expanded, and is now an impressive addition to RTL's publications and community partnerships.
From WHYY's Home Page, it's a hop, skip and a virtual jump to the PBS Teacher Connex home page (at http://www.pbs.org/tconnex.html). Teacher Connex offers information about programs from the PBS National Program Service schedule for pre-K - 12 educators in the U.S. This service also provides information on teacher resources, teaching tips, and copyright information.
Next, visit PBS Online (at http://www.pbs.org). It offers a variety of information about PBS programs, stations and services. Other "must-see" PBS sites include the PBS Learning Services page (at http://www.pbs.org/learn); and PBS' own Ready To Learn website (at http://www.pbs.org/rtl).
We hope you'll find these websites as valuable as we do. WHYY is pleased to offer these quality services for you to add to your arsenal of tools for learning.
