Amid the coronavirus outbreak, with schools closed across the country, parents and teachers alike are looking for ways to keep the education process going.
On Thursday, Tiger Woods and the TGR Foundation announced free access to online learning.
“The resources offered through our no-cost digital platform, TGR EDU: Explore, will help parents-turned-educators and education professionals alike keep students engaged until schools are back in session and beyond,” a statement on the TGR Foundation’s website said.
“Developed in partnership with Discovery Education, TGR EDU: Explore digitizes hands-on, project-based experiences and lesson plans allowing students to explore their interests while providing fresh lessons and strategies for educators, parents and caregivers to implement at home,” the statement also said. “ Through our science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) and college-access curricula online, learning can continue on their own time and terms. With an array of student-driven digital experiences, lesson plans, webinars and training videos, 6-12th grade students, parents and educators can amplify their current activities while exploring new STEM subjects and techniques.”

Tiger Woods offered a message of perspective on Monday, reminding us all that there are “a lot more important things in life than a golf tournament right now. We need to be safe, smart and do what is best for ourselves, our loved ones and our community.”
But this latest move shows Woods is doing more than just Tweeting.
