How can I get a copy of one of your media education programs?

Because we air many of our programs during special commercial-free telecasts intended for educators to tape and use in the classroom, we encourage you to record them yourself. Air dates and times are listed in the "Current Shows" section of this website, as well as alongside our Study Guides. If you are unable to record the programs, or the show you are interested in does not have a program time listed, you may ask us to send you a copy of the one you want. Send your request to Calla Dewdney.

I teach in an elementary school. Should I use your programming?

Our media education programs are specifically designed with a teen and young adult audience in mind (for example, we don't recommend that children under the age of 12 watch any MuchMusic programming). As some subject matter may not be appropriate for all students, we suggest that you screen our programs before using them in class to determine suitability.
