This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children.

Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. --Partner in Education with a local elementary school. --Variety Telethon --School Talk - Weekly feature live during the morning newscast which is focusing on Cedar Valley schools. --School Tours - Cub Scouts, Monona High School Freshmen Media class, UNI e-Media class and Pack 55 Cub Scouts --Several employees are mentors for local students. --KWWL employees speak extensively at elementary and secondary schools throughout the market. --KWWL also provides station tours for school and Scout troops throughout the year. -On Saturday and Sunday March 23 and 24, due to a This-TV network technical issue, the E/I logo failed to display during all E/I programming on the station's This-TV multicast channel. Each This-TV E/I program that was affected on March 23 and 24 was re-aired with the E/I logo on March 29 and 30 in a "second home" time slot and such re-airings were promoted and publicized in advance. For simplicity, we are not reporting this situation as a "preemption"/rescheduling situation in Item 10. --This report was originally timely filed on April 8, 2013, and it is being amended and refiled on May 15, 2013, in order to report the following: the station has discovered that, on January 19, 2013, the "E/I" logo did not appear in several core programs on the station's multicast stream carrying ThisTV programming. All core programs that aired on Saturday, January 19 were affected except for "Green Screen Adventures." The ThisTV network has been unable to confirm that the E/I logo was missing from the programs; however, the station's own investigation suggests that the E/I logo was missing from those programs on that date.
