Did You Hear? Newsela Selects Cloud-based Verint Community

Good news!

Newsela has expanded its reach to educators nationwide with the open, flexible Verint Community that gives teachers a trusted source to get information, collaborate, find support from fellow educators, and share ideas and best practices easily.

Newsela takes authentic, real-world content from trusted sources and makes it instruction-ready for K-12 classrooms. More than 2.5 million teachers and 37 million students have registered with Newsela for content that’s personalized to student interests, accessible to everyone, aligned to instructional standards, and linked to activities and reporting that hold teachers accountable for instruction—and students accountable for their work.

Since launching in August to coincide with the beginning of the school year—and to assist with the significant challenges brought on by universal virtual learning—an average of 1,500 new members sign up weekly and a total of 22,000 members have joined Newsela’s community.
