(AP Wirephoto) Classes Taught By Phone High school classes in physics, mathematics and English are be ing transmitted to 15 school dis tricts surrounding Texas A&M via an electronic “blackboard-by- wire” teaching system developed by Sylvania Electric Products Inc., a subsidiary of General Tele phone & Electronics Corporation. The blackboard-by-wire system transmits voice communications and handwriting over telephone lines for long-distance illustrated lectures. The Texas system is being operated over a 70-mile radius by Creative Application of Technology to Education (CATE) Center, a pilot project financed by a Federal grant to the A&M Consolidated School District. The instruction supplements regular classroom teaching. GRAPHIC AND audio material originates at the CATE center on the A&M campus and A&M Consolidated High School, both in College Station, S. F. Austin High School in Bryan, Texas, and Rockdale High School. Material is transmitted over leased tele phone lines to audio and TV dis play equipment in the other school districts. The control center for the sys tem is in the telephone operating territory of General Telephone Company of the Southwest, an other General Telephone & Elec tronics subsidiary. Points served by General Telephone Company of the Southwest on the teaching network are S. F. Austin High School, Kemp High School and Allen Academy in Bryan; the CATE center and Consolidated High School in College Station, and schools in Caldwell, Somer ville and Snook, all in Texas. Other points on the CATE net- w o r k are Brenham, Cameron, Crockett, Navasota, H e a r n e , Rockdale, Madisonville and Huntsville. “IN EMPLOYING master teachers, the CATE project is able to make available excellent teaching in conjunction with well- planned lessons, incorporating carefully devised materials to schools along the network whose budgetary limits cannot be stretched to provide these courses otherwise,” Dr. Thomas J. Mof fett, CATE Center Director, said. “The effect is an expanded cur riculum delivered by the most competent teachers available.” sion over leased telephone lines costs significantly less than transmission of closed-circuit TV. For example, in one recent dem onstration of blackboard-by-wire linking of a university in New York with a college in Kentucky it was found that closed-circuit TV transmission between the two points would cost $1,450 for a single hour without two-way au dio. However, leased telephone lines for blackboard - by-wire transmission between the two points cost $310 for a full 24- hour period. The blackboard-by-wire concept was developed by General Tele phone & Electronics in early 1914. Experimental systems us ing an electromechanical writing unit and conventional audio and projection equipment subsequent ly were tested by General System telephone operating companies at Texas A&M, along with Stephens College and other colleges and school systems. Aero Students Propose ‘Feeder’ A Texas A&M student proposal for an air feeder freighter is de scribed in the October “Air Car go.” The article, “Texas A&M De signs A Feeder Freighter,” re viewed student team procedure of the Aerospace Engineering De partment and proposal develop ment including design, engineer ing, economic feasibility and manufacturing.
