NOTE FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO WTVP REMOTE: Exciting New Resource for Distance Learning Kids and parents will remember the past few months as the time when school moved from the classroom to the living room. The internet has become the channel of choice for distributing educational content to students. The trouble with this is not everyone has access to the internet or even a computer. This means thousands of low-income urban families and rural residents were almost completely cut off from instruction after the governor’s fi rst stay-at-home order. I have written before about how WTVP PBS bridges the “digital divide” by reaching virtually every one of the 200,000 households in a 20-county region with our broadcast signal. In the next couple of months we are planning another huge step toward an even more equitable remote learning model. We’re calling it WTVP REMOTE, a fi fth broadcast channel funded by educational entities and major donors like Sid and Flo LESLEY MATUSZAK Banwart and others and it is dedicated solely to distance learning resources. Some of WTVP President and CEO the content will be from the PBS Digital Learning Library; most will be locally produced to meet the specifi c needs of our area students. You can read more about WTVP REMOTE elsewhere in the Program Guide. As a public media organization whose purpose is to serve the needs of the community, we know this is the right thing to do.
