Satellite
Satellite-delivered classes are a type of instructional television class.
During an NAU instructional television class, the professor and class members
are taped for later broadcast by satellite. NAU operates the Universityhouse
Channel 9411 on EchoStar's™ direct broadcast satellite service (DBS) available
throughout the United States and its territories. You can watch the taped class
in the comfort of your living room, office or work site if you subscribe to the
EchoStar service through the DiSH Network™. When you enroll in the class you
are shown the times and dates the class is scheduled to be broadcast over the
DiSH Network™.
While watching the taped version of the class or afterward you can send
questions to the instructor and conduct discussions with other students using
the web or email. Assignments are also handled through the web. Some tests may
require you to go to a testing center. If you want to take satellite-delivered
classes but do not have access to a computer you can use one of our
computer labs.
