Comunicar Journal 25: Quality Television (Vol. 13 - 2005)

From TV at school towards TV for school

Abstract

Since TV became popular and with the introduction of Video players and DVD Players the key question was how and in which areas we can use TV in our daily teaching. The USA is the world leader in this field, as not only all public and private schools all over the country count with a TV set in each classroom, but lots of channels and companies produce audiovisual material and TV programmes with educational purposes. In Europe, it has been the British BBC the clear referent when talking about educational TV channels, followed in the last years by educational TV stations in Sweden, France and the Netherlands.
