THERE WERE DOZENS of years of media experience in the room when the former head of Zoomer Media’s TV division, Bill Roberts chatted with former Canwest Global executive and former CAB president Glenn O’Farrell, who is now the president and CEO of TFO.
On Monday, December 9, TFO, Ontario’s publicly-owned French educational media outlet, will host a bilingual one-day conference for educators, policy makers and technology leaders to discuss this technology’s impact on children in the classroom and beyond. The Tablettistes Conference will run from 8 am to 4.30 pm, at York University’s Glendon College in Toronto.
TFO, which flies under the radar a bit as the only French-language broadcaster outside the province of Quebec, has been a leader in the multiplatform media space, offering innovative content for Francophone and Francophile audiences. In Ontario, the rest of Canada, and even beyond, as you’ll hear.
They talked about television, new technology, education and adapting to change in an enlightening 25-minute conversation.
