TAMU professors have improv
ed their instructional techniques
in a program that perpetuates it
self.
It is an Enhanced Teaching
Workshop, developed and conduct
ed by Dr. Glenn Johnson when de
mand and his' time mesh. There is
no lack of the former.
Johnson has conducted three
workshoph for TAMU faculty.
Two are in the wings. Each has
been the result of professor’s re
quests.
Education Dean Frank Hubert
has a keen interest in the status
of the workshops. He noted the
program has had a positive re
sponse from most of the TAMU
colleges.
Inquiry has come from Illinois.
An educator there learned of the
Johnson strategy through the
University of Houston.
A three-day program in its
present format, the workshop
provides college professors intro
duction to new teaching techni
ques. It deals with behaviorial ob
jectives through interaction anal
ysis, constructing and analyzing
test items and microteaching. In
the latter, participating profes
sors present a five to 10 minute
segment of instruction for video
tape recording and playback to
critique.
“No single technique is a pan
acea,” emphasized Dr. Johnson,
until recently head of the Educa
tional Curriculum and Instruction
Department. “But the workshop
adds to the instructor’s repertoire
for use in the classroom where
it’s appropriate.”
He limits the size of each work
shop to nine, for a practical rea
son. “When a group reaches 10
or more,” the professor explained,
“a non-verbal participant emerg
es. We want each participant talk
ing and interacting.”
Johnson believes a need and in
terest in such programs exists in

the field of higher education.
“We’ve had nothing but posi
tive feedback,” he observed. “Most
important, there is every indica
tion that the people who have
participated to this point have
been volunteers.”
In its present format, and un
funded status, three workshops a
year are the most Johnson feels
he can handle. They are usually
in January, May and August. This
May, a workshop for the Col
lege of Liberal Arts will be con
ducted. One for the College of
Agriculture is planned in August.

funding that would allow us \s

run a center for the enhancement
of college teaching,” Johnson add
ed. With such support, it would be
possible to conduct a three-week
workshop for faculty and “really
put them through the total pro
cess, 110 it would become a part
of thair teaching behavior,” he
said.
The workshops began as special
instruction for graduate assist
ants for teaching, at their request.
Graduate Dean Dr. George Kunze
was invited to sit in on the third
day to have input. 'The dean and
graduate students suggested the
/acuity might benefit.
The first workshop involved one
representative of each of the
TAMU colleges, after the deans
agreed to give it vocal support.
The College of Geosciences,
through Dr. Kenneth Brundidge,
requested the next. The third was
also for geosciences, but two va
cancies occurred.
Classical music
to highlight
OPAS concert
Lawrence Foster will conduct the
Houston Symphony in a Beethoven
evening, April 29, in Rudder Center
Auditorium.
The OPAS-sponsored concert will
begin at 8 p.m. with the overture to
“The Ruins of Athens,” Op. 113.
The Triple Concerto, Op. 56, will
highlight the first part of the program.
Soloists will be Ronald Patterson, vio
lin, Shirley Trepel, cello, and Albert
Hirsh, piano.
The second half of the concert will
be devoted to the Symphony, No. 3,
the “Eroica,” Op. 55.
During Beethoven’s life the ideals of
freedom and the rights of man swept
Europe with Rousseau and Voltaire as
the leading voices. Beethoven had the
desire for political and artistic free
dom. He expressed this desire through
his music by stretching the boundaries
of the Classic musical forms as far as
possible.
Beethoven was one of the first
musicians who refused the aristocratic
patronage which Haydn and Mozart
had accepted.
Admission to the OPAS concert
will be by season ticket or by single
admission. Tickets are on sale at the
Rudder Center Box Office.
USSR receives
illegal goods
WASHINGTON (AP)-Despite the
big increase in its trade with the United
States, the Soviet Union is still receiv
ing some U.S. strategic goods through
illegal channels. Commerce Depart
ment officials say.
The department has disclosed one
such deal involving a neutron generator
from a firm in Colorado Springs, Colo.,
that was diverted from a non-existent
university in Turkey through Vienna
and London, and finally to Moscow.
The generator, which a department
spokesman said can be used to detect
defects in equipment, was delivered to
the Soviet purchasing agency in
January of last year.
“It is most unlikely they did not
know it was improper,” said Hugh
Dolan, chairman of the Commerce
Department Appeals Board.
The Commerce Department said
Kaman Sciences Corp. of Colorado
Springs supplied the generator and was
an innocent party to the transaction.
It was never paid the $9,500 value
of the generator, which was one reason
the transaction was discovered, Dolan
said.
