Continuing Learning During a School Closure Tony Evers, PhD, State Superintendent Continuing Learning During a School Closure All schools have emergency response plans, and those plans should include continuity of learning components for school closures, be they short or extended closures. With respect to pandemic planning, the Department of Public Instruction has encouraged all school districts to develop alternative procedures to assure continuity of instruction in the event of district school closures (e.g., web-based distance instruction, telephone trees, mailed lessons and assignments, instruction via local radio or television stations). As school officials plan for a possible closure due to the H1N1 virus (Swine Flu), they may wish to use the resources online and broadcast on Wisconsin’s public television stations that can be used to continue or review instruction at home. In Wisconsin these stations include: WHA- Madison, WPNE-Green Bay, WHRM-Wausau, WHLA-La Crosse, WHWC-Menomonie-Eau Claire, WLEF-Park Falls, WMVT/WMVS-Milwaukee, and WDSE-Duluth-Superior. The instructional programming broadcast Monday through Friday from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. and from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. has been selected by the Wisconsin Educational Communications Board in conjunction with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction curriculum content consultants. These programs are curriculum-based and correlated to Wisconsin’s Model Academic Standards. Weekly program schedules are available at http://explore.ecb.org/ecbschema/plsql/itvsched1. The weekly schedules include program descriptions along with links to supplemental materials including teacher guides and Web. All materials are free. In addition, Wisconsin Public Television (www.wpt.org), Milwaukee Public Television (www.mptv.org) and WDSE-Duluth/Superior (www.wdse.org) broadcast many children’s programs before and after the instructional programming schedule suitable for elementary grades. Please also check the evening schedule lineups on their Web sites for programs appropriate for middle or high school students. As parents at home look for educational activities to keep their children in the learning mode, please consider adding these links and information to individual teacher homepages or to your school’s Web site.

(202) 429-8970 April 19, 2017 Their Attorneys -ii- SUMMARY In this Petition, WSBS Licensing, Inc. and its parent company Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today.

  • List of Directv Channels (United States)
    List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama.
