		Since its beginnings as the Ontario Educational Communications Authority (the CRTC still grants the license to this authority) in a small office within the Ministry of Education, TVOntario has been involved with teacher professional development, curriculum programming for teacher use with students, and technology (TV, video, CD-ROM, to name a few) for educational purposes.

		This website is a tribute to the various TV shows I use to watch on TVOntario growing up in the late 70's and early 80's.
		These TV shows were all about getting some type of educational fact(s) out - be it learning how to read, figuring out how to do a math problem or discovering some historical fact - as opposed to kids programs these days which are all about selling a product.
