Teachwise Inspire is the first low-cost subscription service for educators that provides members with unlimited access to tens of thousands of downloadable resources with Common Core alignment and detailed teacher reviews, and a robust library of professional development courses.
Teachwise Inspire was developed in close partnership with educators, to answer teachers’ frustration over the difficulty of finding relevant instructional and professional development resources and the amount of time spent searching for them. The platform brings together a variety of teacher-reviewed, teacher-approved resources educators need, including:
- Full-semester lesson plans;
- Simple worksheets;
- An art gallery; and
- Engaging professional development videos on topics ranging from pedagogy to classroom structure
Instructional content is curated in partnership with Lesson Planet, and goes through the company’s rigorous, credentialed-teacher review process to earn Lesson Planet’s industry-standard Seal of Approval before it is included in the platform. Teachwise Inspire members have the ability to rate and review each piece of content on the site as well.
In addition to supporting the needs of full-time educators, Teachwise Inspire is an incredible resource for substitute teachers, who are often tasked with putting together grade-appropriate lesson plans with short notice.
Teachwise Inspire is available at a low monthly cost of $7.99 for basic membership, which includes access to the resources detailed above, and for a limited time is available for a seven-day free trial.
To sign up for the free trial, educators can visit inspire.teachwise.com.
