Background
ABC TV Education is the Education programming block run by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. In the late 1980s, all of the ABC's education programming was organized into a broadcasting block on the main channel, which featured education programming for schools children and teachers, as well as lifelong learning and open learning programs for teachers. In early 2013, the block also ran on ABC 3 (later ABC ME).

ABC Education Television
(1994-2013)
Logo: many scientific and mathermatical symbols flash past the screen as well as images of people and nature and a wireframe man and woman. Eventually, the words ABC EDUCATION form up as the lissajous curve appears above, surroudned by mathematical brackets, via the "swinging" animation used in the main station idents between 1988 and 1995 and the ABC Video logo of the same time as well as its DVD successor.
Variants: Two versions of the ident were made. One that was used before Schools education progammes (which is the most common), and another variant used before Lifelong Learning programmes exists.
FX/SFX: 2D motion graphics, live-action, and CGI for the glassy ABC lissajous turning.
Music/SFX: A catchy, upbeat techno tune.
Availability: Extinct as of 2013.
Editor's Note: This is one of the longest running idents ever used by the ABC and is a source of nostalgia for Australians growing up in this era. Ironically, those who remember this ident often associate it with days off from school due to the education block traditionally following the conclusion of the ABC Kids block.
ABC TV Education
(2013-)
Logo: TBA.
Variant: Short versions of the ident also exist.
FX/SFX: A combination of live-action, and 2D and 3D CG animation.
