My suggestions:

Educational Content The Projects page is where educators can share, obtain, use and remix open mapping educational projects.

Educator Training Educator training around open mapping is available either in person or remotely to groups of educators. Please contact us if your group is interested and monitor our calendar of events.

Open Mapping Resources Identified resources that seek to assist educators with common tasks and solve issues that either themselves or students commonly encounter.

Building on Shawn's - suggested revision:

Educational Content Looking for an open mapping exercise? Have one to share? This portal is where educators can share, obtain, use and remix open mapping educational projects.

Educator Training Interested in learning more about how to integrate OSM into your classroom? TeachOSM provides educator training around open mapping in person or remotely to groups of educators. Please contact us if your group is interested and be sure to monitor the calendar of events. steering@teachosm.org

Open Mapping Resources There are many OpenStreetMap and open mapping resources out there! Here we have included some resources that seek to assist educators with common tasks and solve issues that either themselves or students commonly encounter.

Ok, I can update text based on your latest text @mcawley . Also, I'm thinking @geomantic with the feedback that was received on needing to make the educational materials easier to find. I think we can make the Educational Content and Open Mapping Resources icons buttons that will go to the respective pages, and/or add links to the pages in the descriptions too.
