For specific broadcast times, days and a calendar showing you the lesson number and the date it airs go to: broadcastSummer2010.shtml. If you have cable and your lessons air on your cable system, we encourage you to record your lessons in order to view them as often as needed and whenever it is convenient.

If cable is not available in your area, or if you missed the broadcast, DVD copies are available for viewing and/or checkout at the Learning Resource Center (LRC) in the San Marcos campus Library and the Escondido, Mt. Carmel and Ramona College sites. DVDs that are checked out from the LRC or the Escondido Center may be returned to either site. Only students enrolled in the course may check out DVDs for two weeks at a time. DVDs have 3 to 4 lessons on each disc. DVDs may be reserved in advance and will be held for 24 hours. A $3.00 per week fee will be charged for overdue DVDs. A $15.00 fee will be charged for lost DVDs.

If you live at least 25-30 minutes or more away from the nearest College site or the main campus, you may check out two DVDs at a time for two weeks. Please provide verification of enrollment the first time you check out tapes. Many students wait until right before a seminar meeting to view their lessons and find that they are not available. If the DVD you need is not available, please have the staff put your name on a waiting list. They will call you when the DVD becomes available.
If you encounter audio or video problems when viewing the DVD, please notify the library staff. This will ensure the problem will be corrected before the DVD is checked out by another student. Students are not charged for damaged DVDs.
