| During
the 1998-1999 school year, the Educational Television received
a grant from the Shrewsbury Education Foundation to produce three
pilot homework help shows. The purpose of the shows was to assist
Shrewsbury students with homework through a live interactive
telelevision program. |
| On April 5th the first homework help show premiered
on Channel 58. The show was hosted by High School math teacher,
Ms. Patricia Yurkinas. Students
called in questions about geometry and trigonometry as the show
was broadcast live. The
show was produced by Linda Turner, directed by senior Gino Generelli and crewed
by students of ETS. | | The Middle School
Homework Connection show was hosted by Middle School Language
Arts teacher Pam Catino, and produced and directed by
Melanie Eresian. The show
was crewed by students of ETS and by Community producers from Shrewsbury Public Access.
The program focused on the elements of a short story. |
The Elementary Homework Connection show was hosted
by Curriculum specialists Marsha Smith and Terri Caffelle. The
show was produced by K-8
video coordinator Maria Feldmar and was crewed by students of
ETS. The focus
of this program was Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment
System (MCAS) test preparation.
