Preferred term

history of educational television  

Definition

  • Educational and informational programming—defined by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1996 as “any television programming that furthers the educational and informational needs of children 16 years of age and under in any respect, including children's intellectual/cognitive or social/emotional needs”—has evolved rather dramatically from the 1950s to the present. Today, educational programming offers a rich array of educational opportunities for young viewers that engage them long beyond the duration and confines of the telecasts of traditional television programs.
