Enriching classrooms with music education on YouTube

We know educators play an essential role inspiring curiosity in their students, and often rely on YouTube to enhance their lesson plans. In fact, 94% of teachers say they use YouTube in their role as a teacher¹. So we are committed to supporting teachers with an engaging library of high quality, age appropriate content taught by world-class creators.

Today, we’re excited to announce a new Music Education series, “Think Like a Musician”. This partnership combines the power of TED-Ed, a beloved learning channel, Education Through Music’s reputable curriculum, and professional artists to bring high-quality music education resources to teachers around the world. Each video will include comprehensive resources, such as a lesson plan and a rubric, enabling easy integration into classrooms. Every video will even include an interactive experience to encourage hands-on student engagement.

Educators can confidently share this high-quality content in classroom settings via the YouTube Player for Education, a distraction-free embedded video player that is integrated inside popular educational tools.

And for those not in the classroom, there is more to learn on YouTube. In fact, in the US, 92% of viewers report using YouTube to gather information and knowledge_². Lifelong learners can broaden their knowledge on anything from learning to code to baking bread. Check out youtube.com/learning to teach yourself something new.

We appreciate all the work that teachers do - whether you’re in the classroom or behind a camera - thank you for using YouTube to help teach the world!
