Educational Media
Partnow Consulting works with school districts,
museums, universities, cultural organizations, and corporations to
develop print and virtual learning experiences. We base our innovative
and effective materials on state and national content-area standards
and, in Alaska, on Alaska Cultural Standards. We ask our clients,
as the cultural experts, to carefully review all work for authenticity
and accuracy before it is published.
