Abstract | High school administrators in sparsely populated rural areas are showing great interest in interactive satellite instruction as a way to resolve teacher shortages and meet rigorous state graduation requirements. Televised classes permitting live teacher/student interaction via satellite communication systems and regular telephone lines provide equity and increase quality of educational opportunity, provide access to subject matter experts/career role models not available in local communities, provide interaction with students in other schools, increase access to information/instructional resources, offer opportunities for staff development/inservice training, and increase school/community linkages. Four interactive instructional television satellite systems currently operate in the United States: the TI-IN Network from San Antonio, Texas, Oklahoma State University's Arts and Sciences Teleconferencing Service, Utah State Department of Education's system, and Eastern Washington University's Telecommunication Project. The rapid growth of these four satellite networks has generated interest by many state officials in statewide satellite networks. Kentucky and Missouri are the first states to establish networks to broadcast elementary/secondary, staff development, college credit, adult education, and community education courses. Characteristics of the satellite systems are described and addresses for further information about the systems are provided. (LFL) |
