James F. Evans Collection; AGRICOLA IND 89018376, The Extension Service historically has sought and used new communication methods and the author believes that the satellite television will have its era in Extension. Although the use of television in Extension is not new, economics, changes in FCC public service requirements, public television, and a smaller farming audience have forced much of the Extension programming off the air. The author cites seven reasons why the television renaissance may lead to an increased use of the medium by Extension. Dr. Whiting provides an overview of videotape and satellite video teleconferencing in Extension and details the Ohio State Extension experience with satellite video teleconferencing. The article concludes with 16 lessons learned by Ohio that can be helpful to others considering satellite video teleconferencing and asserts that there is a place for satellite and video technology in Extension youth and adult educational programs.
