Which is Better? ArtsEdge of PBS teachers?
In looking at both websites, format wise, they both seem fairly easy to navigate aorund. PBS teachers offers lesson plans, discussions, and even professorinal developments for teachers to look at. In the lesson plans for each topic, it gives a full format plan on how to go about teaching it. It also gives lesson for other subject matters as well. It is great that they have a discussion group, but you need an account in order to read it them all. Although the idea that they also encourage teahcers to bring in PBS Kids shows in their classroom is cute, I feel that is still missing a few items. This site is obviously just meant for teachers to look through and not parents or students. In comparsion to ArtsEdge whose website was also easy to navigate around, they also provide lesson plans, they also have how-tos and even show the standards for teaching different grade level for all visual, performance, and musical art. It also give you sections for parents and students to use the website in order to create their own fun art projects at home. So which one is better? They are both good places to look at, but I sort of want to side with the ArtsEdge's website just because it provides more options for teachers to look at. But I admit that the LearningMedia Center that is linked to PBS is pretty good and it offers more lesson plans, standardsand other options for teachers to look at too. It be a tie for me.
