Khan Academy/ DIIT/ iZone
For NYCDOE Schools
DIIT and the iZone are excited to announce their continued partnership with Khan Academy. As you know, millions of teachers use Khan Academy to more efficiently meet the academic needs of their students. Khan Academy has over 150,000 exercises especially created for the Common Core, all subject areas including Advanced Placement and SAT Prep. They are comprehensive and deep and have been vetted by the authors of the standards. Whether for homework on in-class problem solving, these exercises give your students immediate feedback and solutions, as well as standards-aligned video assistance. This saves valuable time for the teacher while ensuring that students have practice with the best coverage of curriculum tasks. The second phase of the rollout of Khan Academy will reach MS math teachers, HS math and science teachers, SAT Prep teachers and SPOCS. We will be hosting training from June 15-17th, 2017 if you are interested in implementing Khan Academy at your school.
Participating schools should:
- Identify a pilot team to include 2 teachers.
- Attend one of the scheduled face-to-face pd’s
(see attached schedule)
- Begin implementation in selected classrooms in
