DidikTV KPM[1] (known as TV Pendidikan (in non-DidikTV channels)– Educational TV in Malay, also abbreviated as TVP) is a Malaysian educational television network owned, produced and operated by a joint-venture between the Educational Technology Division of Malaysia's Ministry of Education and Media Prima Berhad. The network will be airing educational programming for various school subjects.[2]

The network does not air advertisements during program break times, instead it is only aired after the end of programs. Most of adverts aired on the network were primarily from government agencies. The network's affiliates has been changed several times, beginning with RTM (1972–1999), Astro (2000–2006), and TV9 (2007–2008), prior to 2020 relaunch.

In October 2018, the then-Education Minister Maszlee Malik announced that TV Pendidikan would be relaunched after years of long absence.[3][4] The move persisted even with the change in Malaysian administration as the Ministry plans to take over most of the ntv7's timeslot under a rebrand as DidikTV KPM on 17 February 2021.[5]

History

As TV Pendidikan (1972–present)

TV Pendidikan was officially launched on 19 June 1972 by the Second Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tun Abdul Razak.[6] It was later expanded to Sabah and Sarawak on 30 August 1976. In April 1998, the then-Information Minister, the late Mohamed Rahmat announced the privatization of the network.[7] However, the plan for privatize the network did not materialized as TV Pendidikan is still owned by the Government.

On 3 January 2007 through 31 December 2008, TV Pendidikan was aired on Malaysia's terrestrial channel, TV9. Previously, TV Pendidikan was aired through satellite pay-TV Astro's Channel 28 (2000–2002) and Channel 13 (2002–2006), and Malaysia's terrestrial television stations TV1 and TV2 from 1972 to 1999 respectively.[8]

In October 2018, the-then Education Minister, Maszlee Malik announced the relaunch of TV Pendidikan while stating that the Ministry of Education developing its own content.

TV Pendidikan was relaunched on 6 April 2020 after 12 years of absence and began airing on OKEY, one of RTM’s channels.[9] The network made its comeback on RTM after two decades since its last broadcasting in 1999.[10] As of 4 May 2020, The network also made its comeback on Astro since its last broadcasting in 2006 via Astro Tutor TV.[11]

After nearly 13 years of the network's presence on TV9 since it last aired in 2008, TV Pendidikan was also made its debut through ntv7 under the name DidikTV@ntv7 on 23 November 2020.[12]

As DidikTV KPM (2021–present)

DidikTV@7 logo as of Mar 22, 2021

TV Pendidikan has made a comeback on Media Prima, a decade since it last aired on TV9 in 2008. Its new home, ntv7, broadcasts a program slot known as DidikTV@ntv7 in conjunction with the Movement Control Order (MCO) that has been set by Malaysian government on 18 March 2020. The Ministry discussions were underway with Media Prima on plans to continue the slot in 2021.

On 12 February 2021, Ministry of Education announced that ntv7 will be refocused as an educational TV channel known as DidikTV KPM starting 17 February 2021. The channel features educational content based on SPM curriculum and co-curriculum. It would also provide news focusing on education, edutainment shows, and content produced by the students, as well as relevant international programming. The channel will have 17 hours of airtime and will run daily from 7am to 12am.[13][14]

Operations

Unlike any major television networks in Malaysia, which operated during daytime hours daily; TV Pendidikan does not operate daily, even on weekends and public holidays, but rather only broadcast on Mondays to Thursdays during school times. The network also doesn't air advertisements during its original programming break times and they only aired after the end of programs, with most of the ads aired were primarily from government agencies like Ministry of Health, Ministry of Science, Technology and the Environment, and Filem Negara Malaysia.

Provider timeline

Radio Televisyen Malaysia (1972–1999, 2020–present)

TV Pendidikan was on RTM for 27 years, from 1972 to 1999. It was aired on TV1 from Monday to Thursday in two sessions; i.e. from 7:20am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm. Daytime transmissions on TV1 and TV3 (owned by Media Prima) was introduced in 1994, and TV2 continued the broadcast through 1999. Also, the closing time was moved to 3pm in 1997.[citation needed]

The network made its return on RTM on 6 April 2020 via OKEY.

Astro (2000–2006, 2020–present)

TV Pendidikan moved to Astro in 2000.[15] Astro via Channel 28 aired two separate networks: TV Pendidikan aired Mondays to Thursdays at 9am to 5pm, while Animal Planet occupied the rest of the airtime.

TV Pendidikan then moved to Channel 13 in January 2002 where it was split into two separate networks:

  • TV Pendidikan on Mondays to Thursdays from 9am to 5pm, and
  • TechTV, an American computer and technology-oriented channel airing in the remaining hours. The slot still remained even as TechTV became G4techTV and later G4.

Since 1 March 2006, all G4 programs were shifted to air on Astro TVIQ, whereas the remaining channel space only showed general educational programming. Channel 13 ended service on the Astro platform on 1 January 2007,[citation needed] therefore G4 programs were no longer airing on Astro TVIQ either. In-house programming would not be around for 13 years before 4 May 2020, TV Pendidikan returned to Astro through Astro Tutor TV UPSR and Astro Tutor TV SPM.

On 4 May 2020, TV Pendidikan reemerged on the Astro platform through its in-house channels catered to school levels: Astro Tutor TV UPSR for primary students, and Astro Tutor TV SPM for secondary students.

TV9 (2007–2008)

TV Pendidikan's broadcasting hours was from 8am to 12pm Mondays to Thursdays, weekly but public holidays. The program's episodes are changed every two weeks. For the first time since 2007, TV Pendidikan placed a permanent logo at the top-left of the screen and aired simultaneously with the TV9 logo at the top-right only during four hours of programming.[16]

TV Pendidikan ceased broadcasting on 31 December 2008. It was later replaced by EduWebTV.

EduWebTV (2009–2019)

EduWebTV is the official digital content hub by the Ministry of Education which has been introduced on 1 March 2008. It was the first project of its kind in the world. Bridging the digital divide is perhaps the most important factor in ensuring that education reaches every fraction of society. EduWebTV consists of four channels, which are Berita (news), Rancangan Khas (special programming), Kurikulum (curriculum), and Panduan (guidances). The Ministry embarked on EduWebTV to replace and to improve the delivery of TV Pendidikan. It was aimed at addressing the limitation of using educational television where teachers are unable to fit in the school period.

Teachers nowadays are able to apply relevant video clippings to reinforce their lessons in the classroom. This can make the learning process are more exciting and up-to-date with current circumstances instead of making students understand more about the knowledge content as they can see it.

EduWebTV also promotes self-learning among students. Students can access the videos and the day's homework from the website by logging on with a password created by the teacher. Students can hand over their homework via email or using conventional exercise book.

Joint airing with ntv7 (2020–present)

The TV Pendidikan slot on ntv7 known as DidikTV@ntv7 was officially aired on 23 November 2020. Currently, the programming slot broadcasts daily from 9am to 12pm and 3pm to 5pm.
