NBC Kicks-Of Education Nation

Yesterday, NBC kicked-off Education Nation, a nationally broadcast, in-depth conversation about improving education in America. According to the web site, the goal of the program is “to engage the public, through thoughtful dialogue, in pursuit of the shared goal of providing every American with an opportunity to pursue the best education in the world”

At the station’s New York City headquarters, Rockefeller Plaza will be transformed into a “Learning Plaza” where the public can “explore America’s educational ecosystem” and learn more about how their local schools are performing. NBC will also be highlighting education stories across their various programs including on “Nightly News”, the “Today” show, “Meet the Press”, etc.

Below we have included video of the Matt Lauer interview with President Obama and the 90-minute “Teacher Town Hall” hosted by Brian Williams. For the complete video listing, click here.
