educational broadcasting
Learning through television
Educational broadcasting refers to radio and television programming designed primarily to inform and instruct rather than entertain.
Such broadcasts may target students of specific ages with curriculum-aligned content, or offer general audiences documentaries, lectures, and instructional series on subjects from science to cooking.
Public broadcasting networks like PBS have traditionally been major producers of educational content.
The station devoted its morning hours to educational broadcasting for preschoolers.
