Frequently Asked Questions
 

What is Scholar Channel?
Scholar Channel is a web based media network that allows individuals and institutions relating to academia the opportunity to share their activities with their peers and the wider world and also learn about each other through the power of online media. It also gives those outside of academia an insight into academic life.

Do I have to be a scholar or academic to use Scholar Channel?
No, not at all. Scholar Channel is intended to showcase the world of academia to the wider world. However to upload videos we do ask that you are an academic, student or have some kind of affiliation with an academic institution. This is only to ensure that the platform remains authentic and only shows videos relating to the intended area for the benefit of all those with an interest in the network. We feel that the Internet has plenty of general video sharing websites that can accommodate videos of a diverse nature so we would prefer you to 'tube' those there!
