The main focus of Zane Education's website is to provide an online subscription service providing on-demand access to what is arguably the largest and most comprehensive catalogue of dedicated K-12 educational videos available anywhere in the world. To supplement student learning requirements, we also provide online testing in the form of interactive multiple-choice quizzes so that the student is then able to test himself or herself on what has been learnt in each video.
"An online library of free videos for learners everywhere - our goal is to gather a set of resources to help you learn just about anything, meet people who make a difference in their communities, and even discover new parts of the world. Next Vista for Learning wants to post your educational videos online, too. Everyone has an insight to share and yours may be just what some student or teacher somewhere needs!"
Harness the power of video in conveying emotion, tone, and energy while leveraging the flexibility of an email-like system, where each party can send and view messages at their convenience.
