Read the 2009 SFL Annual Report More than a quarter-century ago, a group of education visionaries recognized that technology—used wisely—could support learning in America’s schools. Together, they founded the not-for-profit Network for Instructional TV, Inc. (NITV), promoting the effective use of instructional video. In 2008, NITV changed its name to The Source for Learning [SFL]. Since then, much has changed. SFL has become a “go-to” expert on the productive use of technology in K-12 and early childhood education—not only video but the web, blogs, wikis, and more. Our web-based services offer thousands of learning resources daily to educators, parents, and students across the U.S. and internationally. The scope of our content and our audiences continues to expand. But some things have not changed. Our staff always works at the leading edge of innovation in both education and technology. Our Board of Directors continues to support the organization as it moves forward. And, most importantly, the company remains mission-driven, dedicated to helping children by promoting excellence in learning. Source for Learning’s services—many offered at no charge—are supported in several ways: through subscriptions to some of our services; by royalties from our broadband channels’ excess capacity—and, in great measure, by donations from generous individuals and organizations. |
I was very much impressed with TeachersFirst. I am in the process of integrating Web2.0 into all facets of my classroom and instruction and what a wonderful resource your site has proven to be. Tested tools, a strong overview of Web2.0 applications, advice about how to use tools, tutorials,and safety concerns are heaven-sent to this digital immigrant wandering in the wilderness trying to get a meaningful handle on how to harness Web2.0 effectively with a seventh grade class. |
