The NJN Video library of programming is comprised of videos from NJN’s 30-year video archive of original productions. Many of these programs are award-winning documentaries with a special emphasis on New Jersey topics.

The videos currently available have been re-edited and re-purposed to fit a classroom situation. They have been packaged into a series of short segments that are designed to promote class discussions. A good illustration of this is the Colonial New Jersey package, tailored for a fourth grade class. This module consists of one 15-minute opening video and 19 other videos presenting a wide-range of colonial perspectives. These average 2.5 minutes in length each. The opening video presents General George Washington, conferring with his key military staff trying to decide whether or not to cross the Delaware River and attack a Hessian fort in Trenton New Jersey. Fourth-graders are invited to ponder his situation and help him decide what to do. The other 19 videos present students with the viewpoints of various contemporaries – a young patriot, tired of unfair British taxes; a woman left to tend her farm and her children as her husband is away fighting; a slave; a Hessian mercenary; a loyalist; and family members with differing opinions. In addition, the fourth-graders are presented with primary text sources and are introduced to the music and sounds of the era.

Currently NJN has repurposed two complete modules - Colonial New Jersey and the Lenape Indians of New Jersey. New packages will be added to the library every year. Video content will be organized in several subject matter categories: Math, Science, Reading, Health, Social Studies, NJN News.

The videos packages created under the NJN library correspond to New Jersey core curriculum content standards.
