Learn360 Adds Content from BBC Motion Gallery

Learn360, an interactive media-on-demand service for the K-12 education market, is adding content from BBC Motion Gallery, a provider known for its videos in science and social studies subject areas, to the Learn360 library.

At the start of the 2012-13 school year, Learn360 will have more than 600 natural sciences and cultural videos from BBC Motion Gallery’s education division. New titles will be added monthly and a special BBC Motion Gallery section will be introduced on the Learn360 post-login page. Videos will be available for streaming and/or download to educators and students at home, in the classroom or anywhere with an internet connection, all part of the all-inclusive price of Learn360.

In addition to BBC Motion Gallery, Learn360 provides thousands of digital video titles, images, articles, audio files, and podcasts from sources such as Encyclopedia Britannica, A&E Television Networks (which include A&E, History, and Bio), and National Geographic.
