Lesson 18

Roles and Functions of and Educational Media Center

        The Educational Media Center or EMC is the media depot of a school. It is where all instructional media, equipment and other informational materials are collected, stored, and utilized. A functional EMC eases the jobs of teachers. Less time is spent searching for the right instructional material to use in class. EMC personnel can help in identifying the best materials to use and in what media. Teachers and students alike can also be taught how to use new instructional media that are available.

        Promoting the use of these materials will help maximize the capacity of the students and teachers in using such materials and more importantly, maximize the learning capability of the students through these materials.
