From lesson to The Learning Zone

Explore Topical Talk lessons that extend into interactive, student-led experiences on Microsoft’s The Learning Zone – designed to help students deepen their understanding beyond the classroom.

Some of our lessons have been adapted for Microsoft Learning Zone, a Windows app that allows educators to easily create and deliver interactive classroom experiences.

These online experiences are designed to fit easily into the original classroom lessons, offering another layer of support. Assign it before class to prepare students for meaningful discussions, use it after class to extend thinking, or revisit it throughout the school year. Educators can also track learning outcomes and gain insight into student understanding, helping them refine instruction and improve teaching.

Learning Zone is available with a free Microsoft education account, making it easy for educators and students to get started.

Start in the classroom. Take learning further.

Classroom lessons with optional interactive activities to support independent and blended learning.

Each pairing includes:

  • Ready-to-use resources – including teacher instructions and an accessible, student-friendly PowerPoint
  • Keywords and definitions to break down new or challenging vocabulary
  • A classroom-ready, interactive lesson on Microsoft Learning Zone
