Who/Why
DESC.info
is developed by ETV in collaboration with the South Carolina
Partnership for Distance Education. Through the site, ETV strives
to promote distance education, within and beyond South Carolina,
for the benefit of the state's citizens and its education providers
too. Officially launched in December 2002, DESC.info's offerings
are steadily growing.
ETV
is well known for its illuminating, inspiring, and entertaining
television and yet it is much more. Our innovative, multi-media
approach enhances educational experiences for educators and students
in public schools, colleges, technical colleges and universities,
and offers continuing educational resources to state agencies, hospitals
and South Carolina businesses. ETV's futuristic digital television
services (DTV), with multiple channels and value-added interactive
web components, will further expand and revolutionize our capability
to expand horizons.
ETV partners
with individuals, groups, state agencies and community leaders to
explore the issues that affect and shape our lives. Every day, through
digital television, telecommunications, local and national productions,
quality programs and more, ETV brings South Carolinians vital and
illuminating information.
We make a difference
in the lives of our viewers and users. Why? We understand and respect
South Carolinians' quest for life-long learning.
The South
Carolina Partnership for Distance Education is a voluntary,
collaborative organization with the purpose of increasing access
to education for all the state's citizens through the use of technology.
Its members include public and independent higher education institutions,
preK-12 school districts, public libraries, governmental agencies
(including SCETV), businesses, industries, and health care organizations.
All of
these groups are involved in developing and utilizing distance education
courses. The new digital capabilities allow all of the partners
to better share resources through a ’PreK- Lifetime’
approach.
