What is the Digital Classroom Collection?
The Digital Classroom Collection contains a set of quality digital reference resources that have been evaluated for their usefulness in supporting B.C. curriculum and instruction. It is offered as a bundled license with a central point of access to bring a cost-effective solution to Focused Education members.
School Districts and independent schools who subscribe to the Digital Classroom core collection have the option to license additional à la carte resources at special member pricing.
