Teachers use videodiscs
to supplement courses
By CHRIS STAMBOULIS
Collegian Staff Writer
Some faculty members at the Delaware County
Campus of Penn State have been using videodiscs as an
educational aid.
Videodiscs, which are similar to record albums but
have both audio and video recording capacities, have
been used at the Delaware County Campus since
February 1983, as part of its library network.
Mary Matus, senior instruction service specialist at
Delaware, said videodiscs are used in several classes,
including political science, human development, and
English composition courses
Videodiscs are used primarily as supplementary
components to courses, she said. Feedback, from both
teachers and students who have used the videodiscs,
has been positive, Matuls,added.
Last Spring Term, the videodiscs were tested at the
University’s Pennarama to see how well the discs
would operate in the video system.
Pennarama, the Pennsylvania Learning Network at
University Park, is a cable television network ded
icated to adult learning and is available for use by all
educational institutions in Pennsylvania, said Jerry
Sawyer, Pennarama coordinator.
Sawyer said Pennarama had been operating in
eastern Pennsylvania since 1980, and is scheduled for
completion this summer.
Sawyer said the testing was sponsored by the Nation
al University Consortium (NUC), which has been
conducting a four-month study on the use of videodiscs.

The NUC, in its third year of operation, is a national
network of colleges and universities in partnership
with public broadcasting stations and cable TV sys
tems.
Allam Herschfield, executive director of the NUC,
said the study went very well, but that a complete
report will not be ready for another month.
Herschfield said the NUC was able to complete the
study with the aid of the Maryland Center for Public
Broadcasting, which developed a broadcasting quality
signal for the discs.
Pioneer Video, Inc. made video equipment available
for the study, he said. Pioneer Video also mastered the
discs, which is like mastering a record for further
copying.
Herschfield said the advantage of using the discs
over video tapes is that they do not need to be stored in
a climate-controlled area.
Ralph France, executive producer for the Maryland
Center for Public Broadcasting, said the study was
conducted to explore the use of videodiscs as a medium
for video software.
The system now used in the broadcasting system
requires that programs be fed by satellite to broadcast
and then to cassettes, which costs, a great deal, he said.
He added that the overall cost of using videodiscs in
the satellite-television-casette relationship can be
cost-effective.
France said if enough discs are produced—about 200
the cost is equal or less than the cost Of three
quarter-inch cassettes.
Trustees approve 9 new scholarships, funds
By PHIL GUTIS
Collegian Staff Writer
The University Board of Trustees
recently approved several new schol
arships and two special funds for
University departments.
The first fund, The Liberal Arts
College Educational Advancement
Fund, will provide money for a vari
ety of needs and activities in the
University’s College of The Liberal
Arts.
Money for the fund has been con
tributed by faculty members, alumni,
interested persons and organizations,
according to information in the trust
ee’s docket and news releases.
“The fund has been established to
provide for the .enrichment of under
graduate students of high academic
accomplishments,” said Stanley F.
Paulson, dean of the college. “It will
assist students engaged in activities,
attending conferences and studying
overseas.
“The fund also will assist faculty
members with the expenses that are
sometimes required for research or
presenting scholarly papers at meet
ings,” the dean said. “With the reduc
tion in other resources in the college,
we consider this kind of assistance to
students and faculty members to be
of critical importance.”
All uses of the fund will be ap
proved by a committee appointed by

the dean of the college. Expenditures
for students will also be approved by
the Office of Student Aid.
The other fund, the Carolyn Wood
Sherif Memorial Research Fund, will
be used to provide grants for travel,
special equipment, supplies and other
purposes to graduate students doing
research in social psychology or the
psychology of women.
Sherif, who died: last year, was a
professor of psychology at the Uni
versity. She joined the faculty in 1966
and wrote numerous .studies and 10
books. Her research involved work
with adolescents and groups in large
cities, social judgment, ego involve
ment and the psychology of women.
All graduate students in a program
of research in the fields noted above
who need financial assistance will be
eligible for grants.
A committee appointed by the head
of the psychology department will
approve expenditures. All awards
will also be approved by the Office of
Student Aid.
The trustees also approved one
award, the Teresa Cohen Mathemat
ics Service Award.
The award is in honor of Cohen, 91,
a retired University professor emiri
ta of mathematics. She joined the
faculty in 1920 and officially retired in
1962, but continues to tutor students
daily at her office on campus.
