Summer of Learning


To support students, teachers and parents in navigating the new learning landscape, KQED is offering at-home learning resources for all children and youth in California and beyond. These resources include a new educational television schedule on KQED Plus in the Bay Area as well as free, online learning media and activities for use outside the classroom. These At-Home Learning educational resources are made possible through an unprecedented collaboration between KQED in Northern California and PBS SoCal/KCET in Southern California.
