Sure you can, Dawud.  Just use a television set.  The standard RCA cable that
is used on Apple II computers and VCRs just plugs in to the back of the IIc+
and into:

	A) the back of one of the newer televisions with the television's controls set
to CABLE or INPUT

	B) the video input of a VCR.  Set the VCR's controls to INPUT or CAMERA.

	One of the friendly pluses that I tout about the Apple II in the classroom is
that it can be hooked up a television so that the teacher can introduce new
programs to the entire class at once, or  use software as a class with
decisions being made in groups.  

	Teachers, it's your choice:  use the TV to show the Lion King for the 56th
time (and they all have it at home, too!) or use the same TV and "play" with
the kids using some of the great software that is just lying around your
school.  Odell Lake, Oregon Trail, Jenny's Journeys, are great simulations, but
with an air of communication, competition and cooperation, the level learning
is raised and all of that involvement/fun increases memory and reasoning
skills.  Take a quest with Chivalry and give team learning a shot in the arm
with each member convincing the others of which actions to take through their
own justifications.  

	Want to add some zest to reading comprehension?  Try the kids' version of
Jepardy, Optimum Resource's Reading Comprehension Series (such as Science and
History In The Making) with it's very up to date stories, or StickyBear Reading
Comprehension for younger readers.  Everybody reads, marks down the answers on
their papers and then it's Table Three's turn to pick an answer for the
computer, so that the game (computer program) gives feedback to the students
and moves on to the next passage.

	A friendlier computer doesn't exist!
