These courses are referred to as Interactive Television or ITV courses. The cable channel allows PCC to offer either standard academic courses to students or teletraining programs for industry. These training programs can be delivered to work stations, corporate training centers, or the student s home. ITV courses are telecast live from the main campus of Pueblo Community College and are telecast live on Channel 18. ITV students have the flexibility of watching the lectures at home while the class is in session.
Students can call in with questions and receive immediate feedback from the instructor.
In addition to the convenience of watching at home, students can tape the programs for review. A syllabus is provided to students outlining course requirements and testing procedures. Students can obtain information about the ITV in which they are enrolled by attending one of the Telelearning Orientation sessions held at the beginning of each semester. CC courses are not telecast on local television. Students can check out individual video cassettes and view them as directed by the syllabi.
