Currently, professionals from different places have access to the materials available on the platform. There are over 300,000 lesson plans posted by over 1.8 million members located in 197 countries.
According to the editor of TES, Gerard Kelly, the United States is the second country with the highest number of users of the online tool. Then comes Canada, Australia, Spain and India.
Brazil is not among those first, but around 50,000 teachers are already part of the network. Gerard Kelly believes that the fact that the site is entirely in English interferes with this data.
How does content selection work?
To filter the material posted by teachers on the site, there is a team specialized in different areas of knowledge. If any copyrighted file is identified, the content is automatically deleted from the network.
What does the platform offer?
On the site you will find several resources for beginning teachers, pedagogical tips for professional development, bank of job vacancies in the area of education, with opportunities in several countries.
In addition, discussion forums are also available, where teachers can expose ideas and select the best materials, compatible with their teaching methodology.
