Yes , i think. This's CNN newsroom channel. I watch TV about 3 or 4 times a week. I like listenning to music from radio everyday. It improves my English's knowledge very much. Sometime, I read a newspaper or a interesting book if i don't watch TV. I live with my niece and I usually watch a cartoon channel with him. It's not hard so it's very easy way to remember it. I always bring a small notebook which i write some new words in when i don't know the meaning. At my house, I try to speak English to each family's member and hear they answer. For 1 year, words went in to my head as i learn by heart a poem. That is why hearing and listening to English as much as possible is so important to me now. The more English I put in, the more I'll get out! Finally, I don't worry if I don't understand everything I hear. Let's watch TV a little bit. Hearing comes first! Understanding comes next!

In my opinion, there are only a few educational programs on TV. This is not the best way to educate especially kids. I have TV in my house but we use it for DVDs to watch some Christian programs or watch some movie, and watch our pictures. Sometimes my kids watch cartoons. In the beginning , we had channels but I recognized that my kids spend so many hours to watch something that not good for them. I can discuss with you about how a lot of bad habits, behaviors TV brings in our life. We made a decision that reading book has more advantages than TV. My family and I rarely watch TV. If we have time we better go to park or somewhere else. I think if we become older we will watch TV and relax.

Today there are many different educational programs and show.Some are about history,other are about biology and others.I want to write about my favorite educational program on TV on Discovery Channel. It is "Planet Earth".This program is very interesting and fascinating. A lot of useful information about the planet Earth can be see on the show.Watching this show viewers learn how to understand and treasure our planet. This information is very useful today because of climate change and other factors that are slowly destroying the planet.I can not write about radio programs because I don't have a radio. Sometimes I read newspapers. I like to watch educational program on TV. It is more interesting for me to watch and see what I'm learning.

We live in the world were electronics rules our life’s. Today there are many ways to received education, TV, radio, internet, newspaper and other. Internet is a source of information. There you can find world news, music, movies, new friends and wherever you want. I use internet too. I get all of my information from there. I also watch TV show and listing radio. It helps me to learn English. But for me the best way to get education,is to read books. I think it will make you more educated.

I think there are many educational programs on radio. In my old country Russia I worked as a bus driver. I spent all day by driving a bus. All day I listened to the radio. My favorite radio station was "Auto Radio". I liked to listen to this radio station because there were a lot of interesting programs. Some of them were about weather, music, cars, and worlds news. Some of them were educational programs. I could learn from them about famous people such as writers, scientists, rulers, musicians. It was interesting to hear about this people. When I drive a car here, in Sacramento, I always listen to the radio. It helps me to learn English. I can recognize words that I know before. And I can learn new English words and expressions. It's nice listen to radio and learn English when I;m driving a car.

I think there are educational programs on TV. When I lived in Russia I used to watch the program "Galileo" every day. It was the program about everything in the world. This program was about interesting building, about music, history, famous singers, countries, about nature. "Galileo" showed us how works the first telescope, how to grow the biggest cucumber, how take care about a crocodile. This program told us about scientists, interesting cars, animals. It was cautionary program for all family. Everyone could watch this program. It was interesting for adults and for children. It's good to watch educational programs. This programs help us to learn more about world. By watching this programs we can learn many things. Usually I don't like to watch TV a lot. But if it's educational program I like it. There are many different educational programs on TV and we can choose which we like to watch.

There is no TV in our house. We try not to waste our precious time in vain. I usually read newspapers or listen to the radio. A lot of interesting Christian programs can be listened on the radio. You can also listen to a lot of educational programs on the radio. I think that TV brings more negative than positive. Typically, in the intervals between transmissions тhere’re ads, which can only affect a person with a bad hand. If I need to know some news I can see them on the Internet. I also love listening to music and I listen it on the radio. When I drive to the car, I always turn on the radio and listen to music or some interesting programs. I think that the TV takes a lot of time in humans. Therefore, if a person is interested of something, the better for him to read in the newspaper, it is much more useful.

Yes, I would think looking up in the website; listing on the radio station; watching the new are education programs. CNN new website has educational program because they would notified the news and stories all over the world. I check on the website to see what are the news and stories daily as to what’s happening; especially when I heard people that are around me talking about it. I also listen to the 1050 radio station am daily when drive to work and coming home from work. They would talk about the presidential and today’s economic. How people letting go of their homes because of the bank doesn’t wanted or willing to work or help them. Also how president wanted people to pay more taxes. Sometime I would watch TV new too when I get chances like NBC channel 3 OR 10. Then I would know what going on in our towns and the weather. The Discovery Channel is also one the educational programs that I watch about animals and sometime humans and lots of more….

I think there are so many educational programs. Today you can watch on TV, listen to the radio or read in the newspaper about everything that happens in the world. In my house there is no TV. But I love to watch the transfer of "In the animal world," the news or documentaries. Usually I watch the transfer on the Internet. Sometimes I listen to the radio. Very often I read newspapers. Most of all I like to watch programs about animals. In these programs you can find out where animals live. What do they eat? How long do they live? Of these programs you can learn a lot of useful information.

Yes I think there are educational programs on TV. In my opinion those programs are discovery, history, animal planet and news channels. Discovery channel has program where people travels for different countries to learn about culture traditions foods. News channel helps you to know what’s going on a worldwide. Animal channel teaches about wild life, and educate about survival of animals in different c situations. Where different fishes in the sea world which we never new. I don’t like watch news because it’s usually a lot of bed news and not true stories. I watch TV usually on a weekend. I love listen to radio all the time when I drive when I at home cooking, or cleaning. My favorite radio stations relax music.

I think we get knowledge from anywhere where you can. Through television, internet, radio, we learn the news. I hardly watch TV, listen to radio in the car sometimes. Very often use the Internet. On the internet I check my news and learn new things. For example the free encyclopedias Wikipedia, there are a lot of useful information. When I was going to fix my car, I take video from YouTube, where clearly shows how to change this or that part. Social networks are useful and not useful, I can not answer unambiguously. Many people just spend their lives in social networks. Modern technology makes our lives easier and may even teach us something else. Find useful in TV, internet, and this you can come in handy someday.

I do not watch TV, because I do not have time. But sometimes if I have time I watch Discovery. Especially I like Discovery’s movie about nature. Discovery Channel is one of the most popular educational TV program. It is a Satellite and Cable TV. Broadcasting of this channel is based on documentary programs about science, technology and history. I usually watch some documentary movie on YouTube. Today Discovery Channel watch 431 million households in 170 countries. Some of the most popular Discovery’s movies are “Myth Busters”, “Extreme Mashines”, “How it’s made?”, “Ultimate Survival” etc. I would recommend everybody to watch Discovery's movies instead of playing video games.

I think there are many educational programs in TV. Tenemos Animal Plannet very interesting adventures in Africa in the jungle knowing the behavior of all animals. CNN, I really like because I can know all the news nationally and internationally especially of my country. History Channel is a very interesting programs that give to know the history of the world .. Also some channels have in their programming schedules for children and adults also. I usually watch TV in the evenings after my work when I'm not doing homework or studying. It also does not watch TV when we're eating dinner. I do not hear much radio except when I'm in a car or in the morning on weekends or when I have visitors at home. I listen to Pandora that allows me to CHOOSE the music that I like, latin music, and music in English.

I think it isn’t a lot of educational programs on TV unless somebody buys special cable’s channels. I think Discovery channel has knowledge programs. My favorite TV channels are CNN and LMN (Life Time). Usually I watch CNN channel in the morning when I eat breakfast. It shows U.S news and also world news. Usually understanding political news or programs are difficult to me but I try to understanding with use a dictionary. Our T.V subtitle always is on. So we can read, listen, and watch T.V at same time and it helps me to improve my English. Also CNN channel has extra subtitle in news programs so when I couldn’t understand the program I begin to read the subtitles on the bottom of T.V which usually are news about around the world. At night we watch LMN channel. This channel shows movies all time. This channel every Thursday shows true movies at 8:00pm.Also channel SECC2 has pronunciation program for ESL students or who wants to learn English pronunciation once a week. I listen to radio just during I drive to collage or other places but I didn’t find my favorite radio station yet. I prefer to listen programs from radio which speaks slowly and clearly.

I don't use any programs on TV. Sometimes I use educational program from the internet.This program is called "learning English for adults". I don't watch TV as much, but sometimes I do watch a few TV shows, which are: news and TV29 where DR.Stanley speaks. I like to watch Christian programs, and the ones that I watch are mostly in Russian.

I think there are a lot of educational programs on TV, but I prefer Discovery channel and its programs about animals' lives around the world. My children liked to watch Sesame Street program when they were small. I do not have enough time to watch TV because I work every day, and study at college in the evening. Watching TV is a good way to relax and get some information and news about countries in the world. I like to listen to the radio when I drive the car. I always listen to 89.7 radio station and K-Love program. It reproduces some interesting news and Christian music and worship songs. It also helps me to practice and improve my English.

I really have not put many attention about the programs in the television, but i believe that there are some educational channel. In one or other way the television have many programs that tells you something. These depends on the people who wants to watch every single channel.There are programs to show them how to cook, like making meals and desserts. Another channel is about yoga to relax the body and mind. Discovery Chanel tells you about the discover stuff that they found and still finding this days. The History Chanel shows you about what had happen around the world history. Yes, I listen to the radio. My favorite station its 99.9 , a Spanish station. I listen a show name La Chocolata. I also like English station, 96.9 The Eagle classic rock ,but I listen more my own music on my mp3.

I believe there are many educational programs on TV. History channel and the food network are some of my favorite educational programs on TV. History channel is very educational because it talks about modern history, ancient history and inventions around the world. Food network is a channel that does not only teach people how to cook different recipes but it teaches about food from different cultures. I watch about one hour of TV every day. I do not listen to the radio that often. I do not have a favorite radio station. I like to listen to mp3 music.

I think, for a lot of people will be hard to decide what to choose. But for me is easy . I choose love. Love and to be loved its the one of the best feeling. To be rich do not mean to be happy. We can make money, buy houses, cars, but we cant buy love. Wealth did not make a lot of people happy. Love is a gift of our life. Thats why i think love is more important than wealth and money.

I do not watch a lot of TV , but in my opinion there are not much of educational programs . Most of the programs making money by people who loves to watch and waist their time in front of TV . Instead of watching TV we can spend our time for our kids , to meet our friend , to help somebody who can not take care of themselves . There are many useful and interesting things for which we can spend our time . Also it is not very good for our kids’ mental and physical development ,but it hard to say “no” if they see adults always in front of TV . May be some people find some educational or interesting programs on TV , but I thing it is just wasting our expansive time .
