About The Education Resource Channel

Programs are obtained from a variety of sources. The Instructional Technology Support Center produces weekly live K-12 student enrichment and professional development programs during the fall and spring semesters.

The ITSC also collaborates with other departments on campus and public and private organizations to produce additional educational programs. Periodically, programs that have a timely importance to the local community will be shown live.

Programs are also obtained from nationally known and independent producers of educational, informative, and dramatic material. Some of these programs are presented directly from satellite feeds, others are presented from disc or tape. Locally produced video programs with informative, educational, or dramatic content are given consideration as program selections. For a complete list of our program sources and links to additional material, please visit our programs page.
