Offering School Networks a Better Way to Share What's Working in the Classroom

This past fall, we launched our Premium Intranet Package, which offers school networks an effective way to share instructional content and practices within and across their organizations.

Our Premium Intranet Package differs from the traditional closed-off intranet model: it offers all of the intimacy and security of a traditional intranet but is built on top of our free and open BetterLesson platform.  Teachers can choose to share resources within their organizations or with the broader BetterLesson community.

Features include customized branding, analytics, professional development video tools, and the ability to curate and feature content.

If your school network is looking for a better solution to share high-quality instructional resources across schools, please contact our Director of Outreach Erin Osborn at erin@betterlesson.org.
