Abstract
This article is about Novasur, Chilean Educational Television, an experience of television as a pedagogical resource. Novasur offers an educational TV channel to the schools, to be used by teachers as a support and strictly according to chilean educational programs. This enterprise started in 2000 by the Consejo Nacional de Televisión de Chile –the television regulatory state organization-, as part of its strategies in seeking a quality television. In addition to expose Novasur origins, objectives, services and resources, some unique aspects are highlighted that make it different from other educational television entreprises in Latin America. The first original aspect is the association of both public and private organizations in the execution of this project. Secondly, Novasur is much more than a television channel; as the resource is seen from the convergence with the new technologies, through its website. Third, Novasur puts the teacher in a central role, because of the emphasis put in the training process –one of the central aspects of the project– and the permanent communication and feedback between teachers and the Novasur administration in order to achieve a collaborative development of the project. Finally, the article portrays future projections in a particular moment of expansion of the service within the country.
