I'm putting a call out for television production syllabus' and course materials used to teach TV production at college/university level. The material is necessary for the completion of my dissertation, and I'd appreciate any and all contributions. Besides syllabus, text, and assignment materials, I would also be extremely interested in pedagogical philosophy of instruction: what do you see as your goal in teaching such courses? How is theory and practice expressed? Where does (if it does) aesthetics, critical theory, text analysis, etc. fit into the course structure? What limits your ability to develop the kinds of courses in video/tv you want to create? How does the industry fit into expectations of faculty/students? Hoping that some of you have the time to explore some of these questions, and that others may be willing to email or mail materials to me . . . . Mashoed Bailie.

It has been a really great learning experience, and much of the written communication would never have made it into verbal conversation. Has anyone found other ways of delving into the relationships of power/knowledge; democratic forms of pedagogical practices etc? Do let me know. Please reply to my email address. Mashoed :-)
