Reference Resources
These are the options to replace the TLC resources with
pricing available only to districts / campuses contracting
with ESC 12 for Instructional Media and/or Video Streaming.
Video Streaming
This is a web-based digital video delivery system that
allows you to download digital videos on demand from
the Internet. Once you download them you can show
them to the students on your computer connected to
a TV with a scan converter or on a projection screen
using an LCD projector. Another option is to put
the video on the students' computers in a lab or
classroom and let them open them up on their own
computers.
