Interactive Distance Education Courses

Utilizing interactive videoconferencing equipment, BGSU Firelands and Bowling Green State University students are able to participate in courses not physically available at their home campus. Audio Visual Services personnel facilitate these courses on this campus and act as course liaisons for Bowling Green faculty. Due to the nature of this service, the first priority of the Audio Visual Services staff is to be present in the office during all interactive courses.

Instructional Television Committee

This committee meets at least twice per year to determine what instructional media to purchase for placement in the BGSU Firelands Library Collection.

Media Purchase Policy

Faculty are requested to make recommendations for media purchases with a short rationale and the committee will base their decision on that rationale.

Service and Products

Services and products for official College and University programs are provided within the Audio Visual Services budget, unless the circumstances of delivery make charge backs for out-of-pocket expenses necessary. Services delivered to College and University clients outside of official schedules are billed at previously negotiated rates. Students may arrange for services through faculty and staff, subject to these same considerations.
