Video Production

Video Production with SECC
SECC offers a unique opportunity for educators and consortium members to produce instructional video programming for the classroom, cable television or community presentations. These important productions lead to partnerships with other entities that believe educational cable television is an ideal way to communicate information to an audience. Video production partners include school districts, community program providers and other nonprofit educational entities.

Media Literacy

Media Literacy: Taking Charge of Your TV
The National Parent Teacher Association, Cable in the Classroom and the National Cable and Telecommunications Association launched this unique partnership in 1994 to address concerns about the impact of television on children. The project encourages and facilitates local partnerships between PTA and cable leaders to teach families about the key concepts of media literacy.
