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.

James F. Evans Collection, All of the 100 county Extension offices in Iowa have a set of six water quality videotapes available for use by clientele. The state water quality Extension specialist designed the high quality tapes, each 20 minutes long, to be viewed at home by clients who had water questions. The question was: "Should video by used again as an educational delivery method?" Responses to a telephone survey of county office assistants indicated a wide variation in the use of video tapes, although over 75% liked the idea of information via tapes. The counties needed assistance with publicity and displays, something that area media specialists might provide. (original)

James F. Evans Collection, Ham, Mimeographed, 1994. 1 p. Presented at the Society for Nutrition Education, Portland, OR, July 16-20, 1994., Most nutrition information is written above the 10th grade level. Because the reading level of at least 50% of the U.S. population is at the 6th grade level and below, a brochure was developed to help these individuals understand and use the Nutrition Facts food label. This single topic brochure was designed for distribution anywhere general nutritional materials are available, especially the grocery store. The tri-fold pamphlet introduces the Nutrition Facts label to individuals with reading skills at the 6th grade level with emphasis on the relationship between serving size and fat. This brochure received formative evaluation from a pilot test group of low literacy clients. The brochure was then redesigned following their suggestions. The final brochure is tri-fold, with color photographs and 6.1 FOG reading level. Summative evaluation of client skill development is in progress. A second brochure is now under development to help clients understand the % daily value on food labels.
