Dive Brief:
- A U.S. Education Department website that offered "videos, slideshows, and tools for using proven teaching practices" has been suspended.
- A representative for the department says there was no longer any funding for the site.
- The Education Department says that many of the resources once on the site are also elsewhere and that it is trying to create an archive of the defunct site.
Dive Insight:
As noted by education reporter Valerie Strauss: "I won’t mention the irony in the fact that department spends millions on school reform that has no proven record of success but ran out of cash for its Doing What Works website."
