What is EDNET/Interactive Video Conferencing

EDNET/Interactive Video Conferencing is the Utah Education Network's interactive system that electronically brings a teacher from one classroom to another, allowing students access to classes not otherwise available in their district or school. Students at different sites can see and hear the teacher and each other through a system of television monitors, video cameras, microphones, telephone lines, fiber optics, and microwave links.

The EDNET/ IVC system offers a variety of practical benefits to its users. For-credit classes are available for both public and higher education. A high school student in Salt Lake City, Brigham City, or Spanish Fork, for example, can take a Chinese course offered at Brigham Young University for high school credit. A class in American Sign Language is offered from Copper Hills High School to other schools in the Salt Lake Valley and beyond. College credit classes are also available. Through concurrent enrollment, ambitious high school students can earn both high school and college credit by taking courses offered on EDNET/ IVC. Currently, there are over 350 EDNET/ IVC sites throughout Utah offering courses that range from Physical Geography or American Civilization at the College of Eastern Utah to Spanish 101 from Snow College or Great Literature of America or Intermediate Algebra at the Uintah Basin Applied Technology Center and Utah State University Education Center in Roosevelt.
