What Is Roku, and How Does it Work?

Roku is a streaming device that allows users to watch movies, TV shows, and other content from the internet on their television sets. It is a popular option for cord-cutters who want to avoid cable TV and get access to the content they love on a flexible and affordable platform.

Roku devices are small and easy to use. They connect to your TV either directly or via HDMI cable and then connect to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Once set up, you can use the remote control to browse and select content from a variety of streaming services, such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and many more.

One of the most attractive features of Roku is the wide range of content it offers. It has thousands of channels, including free and paid options, so users can tailor their experience to their interests and budget. Additionally, Roku has a robust search functionality that makes it easy to find the content you want and discover new shows or movies.

Roku also has a user-friendly interface, making it an excellent option for those who are not as tech-savvy. It is easy to navigate and customize, allowing users to organize their channels and content in a way that suits them best. For example, you can create a personalized feed based on your favorite shows or movies, or you can create profiles for different family members to ensure everyone has access to what they want.

In terms of pricing, Roku devices are available at various price points, from the affordable Roku Express to the higher-end Roku Ultra. There are also no ongoing costs or hidden fees, making it an affordable option for most people.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
