Video Conferencing at The Museum of Television & Radio The Museum of Television and Radio is a public archive of over 100,000 television and radio programs that span the history of television and radio. Through original footage, reporting and dramatization, television programs can give us access to material unavailable through other sources. These television and radio programs act as a window to the past and present, illuminating significant events in our nation's history and culture. How can you expose your students to these programs? By video conferencing with The Museum of Television & Radio's Education Department. During each session, a Museum Educator will introduce clips from past and current television programs from the Museum's collection and then participate in question and answer sessions with the students. In order to participate, schools should be able to connect to a bridge at 384kbps (3 ISDN lines), but the program is also available at 128 kbps or 1 ISDN line. Each conference is ninety minutes but can be adapted into two forty-five minute sessions. Fees for these video conference field trips are as follows:

This class uses those programs to explore the way television audiences from the 50's to the 90's were exposed to issues such as espionage, the blacklist, and Communism in Eastern Europe and beyond.
