(Continued from page two) ter said, of the 50 teachers con nected with the experiment, more than 30 were making an attempt to breach the change over from conventional to tele vision teaching. Carpenter felt that students taking the TV courses this year would probably benefit more from them. Last year, no chan ges were made in the content of courses or in their method of pre sentation to adapt to TV. This year, the 'courses have been changed t take advantage of every possibility TV may offer. The classroom television ex periment is being run on the same lines as it was last year. Carpenter said. Each televised course is divided into two sec tions. Students are placed in either the room where the lec ture is originating, or a room that is receiving the lecture on a television set. Periodically. these groups are interchanged. Results of student marks, re action, and interest, in each course will be compared with re sults of students taking the same course with conventional teach ing. Findings of the experiMental courses are being sent to uni versities and colleges all over the country, to act as models for TV experiments at these institutions. As a direct result of last year's findings at the University, New York Univer sity is establishing experimen tal television courses. Carpen ter said. The University also acts as a proving ground for the company supplying equipment for the tele vision experiment. Every time a new piece of equipment is devel oped, it is sent to the University, and we try it out. Carepnter said.
