and analysis on education. Whether you are looking for news on how technology
is being integrated into the educational system, new innovative styles of

be your guide.
Inside Higher Ed
With news, analysis, blogs, and a job board, Insider Higher Ed contains updates on everything going on
in the field of education. In addition to the regularly updated website, Inside
Higher Ed also offers webinars (although at a hefty cost) on a variety of
education-related matters, and has a running list of upcoming conferences and
meeting that focus on education.
The
Chronicle of Higher Education
The Chronicle of Higher Education is updated daily with academic
world news and analysis, with a specific target audience of educators and
administrators. In addition to their website, The Chronicle of Higher Education
also publishes a print edition which is distributed widely to universities and
colleges. The downside is that information is not open-access friendly, and
some of the content is restricted to paid subscribers.
Mediashift
(PBS)
A website produced by PBS that focuses on how new media is transforming
society, Mediashift has a number of different focuses, among them education. Mediashift’s
education portal focuses mainly on new technological innovations in education,
including how technology and new media is creating new trends. Medishift also has an Idea Lab page dedicated to education, which focuses on startup ideas.
Al Fanar
Al Fanar is only a few months old but it is already filling the void on information
regarding Arab world education. The website publishes news, analysis, and
commentary related to higher education in the Arab world.
World Education Blog
The World Education Blog is run by the Education for All
Global Monitoring Report, published by UNESCO, and it focuses on a wide range
of issues regarding education across the globe. The blog’s in-depth reporting
focuses on a variety of topics, with a particular concentration on access to
education.
Edublogs
Edublogs is not a news site, but it is an impressive blog network that focuses
solely on education and academia. It is more than just a host for blogs; it functions
as a community that encourages blogging as an innovative forum to enhance
dialogue.
Times Higher Education
Times Higher Education is a UK-based website that focuses on news in education
and provides current analysis on important debates in higher education. The
website also hosts a job board and annual rankings for universities across the
world.
Library Journal
Although the Library Journal’s main focus is libraries, of course, the website
also hosts a lot of important stories relevant to education, as libraries are
an integral part of most academic institutions.
Education Week

concentrating on all levels of education.
The website also catalogues current events focusing on education and has
several affiliates, including TopSchoolJobs and Teacher.
