McGraw-Hill School Education Group, the leader in digital and print educational curriculum for Grades PreK-12, now offers ConnectED, an online portal for digital delivery of its Glencoe Literature: Texas Treasures technology and print resources.

Glencoe Literature: Texas Treasures is a comprehensive collection of exceptional literature and engaging nonfiction with integrated skill development and targeted differentiated instruction for Texas students in Grades 6-12.

A virtual web-based resource center, ConnectED serves as a one-stop, central location where Texas teachers and students can easily access and navigate the digital versions and materials connected with the program their district has adopted.

McGraw-Hill understands the technology needs and expectations of today's students. To meet these needs, the company offers the ConnectED platform, which allows students and their parents to access digital versions of the textbook as well as multimedia content that brings each literature assignment to life.

Teachers often cite "more time for planning" as one of their top desires, so ConnectED has made it easy for them to access all of the materials they need to plan their lessons - in one convenient location. This wealth of resources includes assessments, supplements, sample lesson plans, activities, and all materials connected with the program.

"At McGraw-Hill School Education Group, we are always working to improve the experience teachers and students have with our programs," said Dan Caton, executive vice president, Learning Solutions Centers. "ConnectED will make it easier for teachers and students to access the materials they need to be successful, any time they need them."
