Subject: Question: Digital TV
To: LM_NET@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU

Dear List,

Many thanks to the LM_NET moderators for giving me permission to post
this question. We at PBS are researching the feasibility of integrating
digital television (DTV) into classroom instruction.  Since I know that
many of you have as much knowledge of the school's technology as anyone
else in the building, I would like to pose a question to you that would
help us immeasurably with our research.  Please reply directly to me at
clowe@pbs.org.

I am wondering how many schools/districts are installing a media server
on a school network (for digital delivery of audio, video, and other
media assets).   Would you choose a media server that came prepackaged
with media (like KnowledgeBox, Encarta, etc.) or prefer a more generic
solution, supported by your tech coordinator, that could incorporate
content from multiple sources?  What technical requirements are
especially important?

Thanks so much,

Carrie Lowe
