The top 10 neighbors split into two recognizable clusters: education organizations on one side, education media and publishing channels on the other — and Education Week Teacher's audience sits squarely at the intersection of both.
Similarity here measures how closely two entities' audiences resemble each other in composition. The three strongest neighbors are all education organizations: ASCD at 0.96, Edutopia at 0.95, and Discovery Education at 0.95. Teacher2Teacher (0.87) rounds out that cluster. The second neighborhood is built from education-focused media and publishing: EdTech K-12 Magazine (0.94), MindShift (0.93), and TechLearning (0.91) — all channels rather than organizations. Google for Education (0.90), a tools-and-resources entity, sits between the two clusters. At the outer edge, George Couros, an academic influencer (0.87), and Heinemann Publishing, a book publisher (0.86), extend the reach into practitioner-facing content and professional development materials.
No neighbor in the top 10 falls outside the education ecosystem in any meaningful sense — every entry, from organizations to media channels to a single academic, maps onto the same professional audience. The two-peak structure reflects an audience that reads both institutional education content and practitioner-oriented media, rather than anchoring exclusively to one format.
