<p>If we proceed with purchasing Safari Montage, what is the exact plan? What features are we buying and what features would we leave for future development?</p>
<p>If we proceed now, we would take quotes for&#8230;.</p>
<ol>
<li>Video Content, including  K-8 and 9-12 content and Cyber-Science 3D Models</li>
<li>Ability to stream 9 video sources (we&#8217;ll assign 8 of them to the most popular educational TV channels and then assign the last channel to the Decorah Eagle cam)</li>
<li>Ability for the district to upload content to would be available to teachers/students.</li>
</ol>
<p>Options that we would review at a later date&#8230;.</p>
<ul>
<li>Ability for teachers to upload their own content.</li>
<li>Ability for teachers to set up recording of  TV stations, including a TV guide like option</li>
<li>Ability to add more TV channels</li>
</ul>
