August 11, 2009
Iowa Public Television's K12 Classroom TV features 24 new series, many of which support 21st Century Skills as outlined in the Iowa Core Curriculum. In addition to core subjects, new programs address such topics as financial literacy, technology skills, diversity, career skills, personal responsibility and communication.
As in past years, most new titles are accompanied by extensive online companion resources – from full-blown Web sites to free downloadable PDF files. In growing numbers, more and more programs are streamed online.
