Charlotte, NC, Oct. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new study reveals key areas of opportunity for addressing the most pressing issue facing educators today: student engagement. The Education Insights Report by Discovery Education captures prevailing attitudes and beliefs from superintendents, teachers, parents, and students. Survey data was collected by The Harris Poll, an industry-leading research organization, on behalf of worldwide edtech leader Discovery Education in August 2024. It included 1,524 responses from K-12 students, parents of K-12 students, and K-12 teachers and superintendents.

'While The Education Insights Report by Discovery Education found that students, parents, teachers, and superintendents have a generally positive outlook about the current state of education, it also found there are hurdles to overcome,” said Brian Shaw, Discovery Education's Chief Executive Officer. 'Educators have concerns about keeping students engaged, and students feel uncertain about their preparedness for the future. Discovery Education's goal with this research is to spotlight opportunities for improvement so that all stakeholders can collaborate to solve these challenges and create brighter futures for all learners.'
