Using programs from the collection as a means of illustration and investigation, Paley Center Educators lead sessions on a wide range of subjects such as advertising, the documentary form, and the civil rights movement. Discussion-based classes are ninety minutes in length. They seek to build analytical thinking, viewing, and listening skills and attempt to provide insight into the roles television and radio play in our culture. Classes can be customized to address the particular need or interest of a group and, where applicable, the Paley Center provides supporting educational materials for classroom use. On-site classes are available in New York.
