Icue.com - Innovative Online Learning Powered by NBC

iCue is an innovative learning environment that harnesses the power of the NBC News archives to bring cutting edge learning materials to all. Think of iCue as the educational arm of NBC News that is dedicated to providing resources for students of all ages and to teachers as well. This collaborative learning community incorporates gaming, discussion, and video resources in a safe, student-friendly online environment. Teachers can also download lesson plan ideas and primary source materials to develop the most interesting and information-filled classes possible. Students can connect to a community of friends and fellow learners and share, discuss and support one another through the iCue Friends Network and Discussion Forums.

 
  In their own words  

“A fun, innovative learning environment build around video from the NBC News Archives. Videos, games, and activities correlated to courses in U.S. History, U.S. Government and Politics, and English Language and Composition, and more. A community of friends and learners engaged in discussion around academics, current, events and important issues”

  Why it might be a killer  

This is a potentially Killer Startup primarily due to the backing it has of NBC. NBC has a huge archive of searchable video material and iCue uses it to make better classes—sounds like a winner to me.

  Some questions  

Will this spur the other major networks to develop similar education tools and could this cause a real shift in the e-learning industry?
