As part of our ongoing commitment to acquire the best resources possible at an affordable price, the Library is making available – on a trial basis - Discovery Education's UnitedStreaming Plus database. This database contains over 8,000 media titles in subject areas ranging from Health, Language Arts, Science, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Visual and Performing Arts.
Student teachers may find several features of this database useful in preparing for their classes. The Teacher Center allows educators to create assignments and select or create quizzes for students to use. Lesson plans are available with links to appropriate videos tied to the curriculum.
Videos may be streamed directly from the Web site (note: the download feature does not work during the trial period). Closed captioning is available and can be selected as an option within the personal preferences area or within the individual video being accessed. Videos can be embedded into PowerPoint programs to provide instructional reinforcement.
To access this database, go to the Library's home page at: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/LNORRIS/My%20Documents/EMAIL%20NEWSLETTER/www.clarion.edu/library and click on "Discovery Education Streaming" link located at the top of the page in blue letters. Remember if you are accessing this from home, a log-in box will open up on the screen before you can get into the database. You may use your iClarion username and password or Students will need to use 9 + their Clarion student ID number to log in. Faculty must use 0000 + their employee ID number. Please let us know how useful this database is to you.
