WLRN Learn is a local, non-commercial,
cable access channel managed and programmed as a public
service of Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS).
The channel is carried by all cable providers in Miami-Dade
County and is located on Channel 79 on most cable systems.
An integral part of WLRN’s mission is to serve the educational and cultural
needs of South Florida’s many diverse residents. Viewer feedback tells
us that there is an overwhelming desire from many local residents to view lifestyle
programs featuring cooking, crafts and travel. Our viewers exercise on
a regular basis, watch international news, and they love intelligent talk.
“While Miami-Dade is one community, it’s
also a community of many different cultures and voices,” said
John LaBonia, General Manager of WLRN Public Radio
and Television.
WLRN
Learn provides viewers with
diverse programming from Create, a
channel developed by American Public Television (APT)
in collaboration with Thirteen/WNET New York and WGBH
Boston. Create features public
television's most popular lifestyle and how-to programs
including a schedule of do-it-yourself genres including
viewers' favorite public television series and specials
on cooking, renovating, painting, crafts, travel, gardening
and other community interest programming that have
been highly popular to viewers in the community.
Weekdays, Monday through Friday, viewers will also
be able to watch international news from France, Germany,
Spain, and England. Some of the programs include, Le
Journal, BBC News, and Deutsche Welle News Journal.
These daily news programs offer members of the community
with international roots an opportunity to view current
events from their homeland.
WLRN Learn continues to feature unique
and entertaining programming from talented M-DCPS students.
The channel will showcase the work of students involved
in the technical and visual arts programs of the Miami-Dade
school district.
Exercise buffs will still
get their daily dose of Body Electric, two Yoga series,
and the ever-popular low-impact exercise program
Sit and Be Fit. And, alongside the exercise and news
programs will be Charlie Rose and Tony Brown’s
Journal, plus the introduction of a new talk-series
called La Plaza featuring prominent Hispanic personalities.
