Advantages Seen in Televised Course
(I III* Is the last of a wrli'K of
three articles dlseusslng the new
Inter-lnstltiitloiiul General Psy
chology course offered Cniversify
students on KOAC and KOAP
TV, state edueatlonal network.)
Analysis of many of the experi
mental facets of the m w televised
General Phychology course insti
tuted during fall term Is still in
progress and conclusive Informa
tion will not be available for sev
eral weeks.
AMONG REASONS for setting
up the televised course original
ly was to facilitate more adequate
presentation of numerous phycho
loglcal topic* which could never
be duplicated in the classroom.
As L>ouia R. Goldberg, course
coordinator for the University
and assistant professor of psy
chology put it, “Certain material
must lie seen to be appreciated.”
Now an entiie class can view
numerous objects and experi
ments which previously would
have required Individual inspec
tion or presentation of films or
slides.
In the conventional classroom
films or slides have two notable
drawbacks. First students have
difficulty in taking notes in a
darkened room, and it is diffi
cult to present clips in class.
KAt'H OF THE three weekly
programs can reach 5.000 stu
dents enrolled in General Psy
chology at the four schools affil
iated with the course. However,
at some of the schools in the sys
tem including Oregon State Uni
versity and Portland State Col
Two Professors

K. O. Kbbighausen, professor of

a conference of television lectur
ers and administrators in Dallas,
Tex,, Wednesday and Thursday.
The meeting is for college pro
fessors whose classroom televi
sion programs are sponsored by
the Ford Foundation.
The meeting is to be "of wide
ranging and informal discussions
with intensive consideration of
the principal problems and poten
tials in the use of television at
the college level."

The committee whicji act up
the course fall term felt that the
combineiton and coordination of
talented psychologists from the
other schools in the system as
well as out-of-state guests would
produce a course ‘'vastly superior
to one taught by a single instruc
tor or a single school.

issues involving a number of
things, which are out of character
for any educational purpose to be
served here,” Jensen said.
"We are not about to allow the
campus to serve as a sounding
board involving what should be
taken care of by the courts . . .
we are dealing with a man who
Is operating illegally in a sub
versive organization.” Dodge said
that Jensen's veto caused consid
erable agitation by both students
and faculty members. No formal
protest has been filed however.
W. A. MvCLENAJHAN, asso
ciate professor of politcal science
at OSU, took opposition with
Jensen.
He said. "The fact that we may
be giving a platform to Hall
to expound his arguments is only i
incidental. The important thing i
we would be doing would be to.
give the students the opportunity
to sec and hear for themselves." j
"The source of the view has:
nothing to do with the legality of j
the view. In other words a,
speaker's position may be illegal
but he has the right to express
his view's.”
AT REED College in Portland.
President Richard H. Sullivan
said if students arrange to bring
the Communist leader to the
campus the college will permit it.
In Washington, officials of the j
University of Washington, West
ern Washington College and,
Central Washington College an
nounced that Hall would not be
allowed to speak there.
Hall is one of 11 Communist
leaders convicted in 1949 of con
spiring to teach overthrow of the
government.
HE FAILED to appear to start
serving a five year sentence in
1951 and was seized a few
months later and given an addi
tional three year extended sen
tence.
Hall was identified as general
secretary of the Communist party
in the U. S. Recently he has been
referring to himself as “an
authoritative Communist spokes
man," since members of the
party were directed to register
w’ith the Federal Subversive Ac
tivities Control board.

TO THK Instructor, the pre-re-,
corded lectures offer an oppor- j
tunity to view his own teaching. :
Through the medium of television, j
many professors can see them
selves in action and have the
opportunity to make improve
ments which never would have
been possible in the convention
al classroom.
The televised course offers also
minimum uniformity to schools
in the system, giving students at
smaller, more isolated institutions ;
an opportunity for a common
background before they enter up
per division courses.
Outstanding lectures by noted
psychologists can be preserved
and used year after year.
Technical difficulties and
broadcasting problems have been
among disadvantages of the
course.

psychology. Students complained
that they felt left out. The panel
discussions were discontinued
after the second week of fall
term.
Immediate feedback is lacking
and it is impossible for an in
structor to adjust his lecture to
the mood of the audience. He
cannot watch their attentiveness
by watching their behavior.
Added strain and demands are
also a result from the TV course.
Instructors make many of the
films and charts used on the pro
grams themselves.

tive analysis of texts and quiz
