Discovery Education

Uh, and welcome everyone.

I really wanna say thank you for, uh, joining us today, Discovery Education's, um, sponsorship of this three-part series.

Today's is Real World Connections: Instructional Strategies for Using Industry Voices to Deepen Career Exploration.

And I'm particularly excited about our panel.

Uh, we have a group of, um, educators and directors from Metro Nashville Public Schools in Nashville, Tennessee.

So you will get to hear real-life examples of some opportunities for your students.

And again, a thank you, and we'll be thanking, um, Discovery Education throughout.

But thank you for participating in this webinar that has been a three-part series on Future Ready Pathways, Connecting Students to Careers.

Good afternoon, everyone.

I'm Monica Cougan, and I want to welcome you to Discovery Education's Future Ready STEM Pathways, bringing real-world careers into everyday instruction.

Sorry about that.

I'm excited to introduce our speaker here shortly.

So welcome.

This is the first part in a three-part series that Discovery Education is offering around future-ready pathways connecting students to careers, and we're very excited to be here.

I would recommend after you're part of this, there's two additional great sessions coming up on September 17th and 30th at the same time, so grab your lunch and join for that as well.

And a little bit about the speakers here today.
