AgriMarketing Update via online issue of Entrepreneur. 5 pages., Describes a college student contest involving video clips related to livestock production.
15 pages., Securing the adoption of scalable agro-educational information and communication technology (ICT) solutions by farmers remains one of the international development community’s most elusive goals – in part due to two key gaps in the data: (1) limited comparisons of competing knowledge-delivery methods, and (2) few to no follow-ups on long-term knowledge retention and solution adoption. Addressing both of these gaps, this follow-up study measures farmer knowledge retention and solution adoption two years after being trained on an improved postharvest bean storage method in northern Mozambique. The results found animated-video knowledge delivery at least as effective as a traditional extension approach for knowledge retention (97.9%) and solution adoption (89%). As animated video can more cost-effectively reach the widest – even geographically isolated – populations, it readily complements extension services and international development community efforts to secure knowledge transfer and recipient buy-in for innovations. Implications and future research for adult learning are also discussed.

distance education, James F. Evans Collection, Distance education is being utilized more often by colleges of agriculture to meet the educational needs of a more diverse clientele. The college of Agriculture at Iowa State University utilizes a variety of communications media to deliver distance education programming, but relies most heavily on videotapes. In this article, the authors synthesize research related to effective teaching through one-way instructional television, and test two hypotheses derived from this research. The instructional manipulation is described, and its influence on achievement across four cognitive levels in addition to learner satisfaction are tested.
