Audio-Visual Aids
Center Combines
Three Jobs in One
By JOHN STAFFORD
Mail Tribune Staff Writer
Larry Butler, Southern
Oregon college instructor, is a
man with little free time
these days. As head of SOC's
audio-visual aids center, But
ler combines three jobs in
one.
To SOC students he is
teacher. To faculty members
he is an invaluable aid in
helping them better teach
classes. And to southern Ore
gon citizens and schools, he is
the man to call when infor
mation on almost any subject
is needed.
Butler teaches a course in
use of audio-visual aids for
education students, super-
vises the audio-visual aids
use for the faculty and super
vises film rentals for the de
partment of visual instruc
tion of the general extension
division in southern Oregon.
The department is a branch
of the Oregon state system of
higher education.
Was Biology Instructor
Butler has been a jack of
all trades since coming to
SOC in 1047. His first assign
ment was that of a biology
instructor.
In 1948 when SOC recog
nized the need for a course
instructing students interest
ed in audio-visual aids, Butler
volunteered to furnish the in
struction. In 1950 he assumed
full-time leadership of the
audio-visual aid center, which
consisted of one slide projec
tor and one film projector.
However, he wasn't con
tent to merely supervise the
department's opera tion. In
the summers of 1951, '52 and
'53 he attended Washington
Slate college for advanced
training. He went to school as
a full-time student in 1058-59.
Currently, he is finishing
work on a doctorate degree
in audio-visual education.
Wants to Help
Why was a man who had
been a coach, high school
principal and college biology
teacher willing to go back to
school? "I want to help peo
ple do a better job of teach
ing," Butler says.
Today his duties bring him
in contact with seven coun
ties in southern Oregon.
Films available at the cen
ter are distributed to schools,
service and study clubs in
Coos, Curry, Douglas Jose
phine, Jackson, Klamath and
Lake counties.
Butler's work with area
schools includes consultation
on ways and means to set up
an audio-visual program, and
demonstration of materials
and equipment used.
Teaches Courses
In addition, Butler leaches
Oregon education system ex
tension courses in all parts of
southern Oregon. Currently
he is teaching such an exten
sion course in Medford.
"Use of audio-visual aids in
education is growing." Butler
says. He attributes the rising
demand to "demonstrated
successes in this type of edu
cation by the armed services
during World War II."
"Increased numbers of stu
dents in schools have made
new methods of teaching nec
essary," Butler states.
Butler says that most peo
ple have an inedquate concep
tion of what the audio-visual
aid program embracses.
"When people think of aids,
they always think of films,"
he says. "However, these are
only a small part of the pro
gram," Butler stated.
Types of Aids
The SOC audio-visual aids
department is ah example of
how popular this method of
teaching has become. Nine
teen different types of aids
are maintained by the de
partment. These range from
filmstrips. disc recordings, ex
act models, globed, microfilm
projectors, opaque projectors,
public address systems, to
such modern devices as tele
vision, tape recordings and
radio.
Special facilities maintain
ed by the department arc a
fully equipped radio station,
a record library, consisting of
educational records, and a
listening room for students
using the recordings. Also, a
small room where filmstrips
and motion pictures are pre
viewed Is supervised by the
department.
In teaching audio -visual
aids courses, Butler's objec
tives are "to teach prospec
tive teachers and teachers
why audio-visual aids should
be used in the teaching proc
ess." Emphasis is also given
to "how audio-visual aids
should be used in the teach
ing process."
All Aspects Covered
All aspects of the aids pro
gram are covered. Students

FILM CENTER More than 350 films are
maintained by the audio-visual aids depart
ment for use by SOC faculty members in
teaching classes, and service and study clubs
in the southern Oregon area. The films are
part of the film library of the department
boards, use filmstrips, tape
and disc recorders, use radio
maps and globes, still pic-
lures, learn uses of charts and
graphs, and study educational
television.
More than 350 films are
available for general use
from the state department of
visual instruction library
maintained by the SOC audio
visual aids department. About
1,499 film rentals were han
dled by the department last
year. Elementary ana nign
schools, both public and paro
chial, service clubs and study
groups made up the bulk of
these rentals.
Subjects covered in the
film library are about as var
ied as the aspects of the aids
program. Films on history,
geography, biology, sports,
science, medicine, marriage,
radioactive fallout, fishing,
and government are availa
ble, plus many others.
Make Use of Service
Faculty members make
great use of the visual-aids
department. All facilities the
department has to offer are
available. Special films are
also ordered through the de
partment. In October, 18 de
partment films were shown
each day.
Hundreds of additional
films are available by re
quest from the department of
visual instruction library in
Corvallis.
Larry Butler is a busy man
these days. And as new and
increased uses of audio-visual
aids are discovered, he will
become busier.
