| Abstract | A consortium of 20 community colleges in Southern California enrolled approximately 8000 students for two televised college credit courses and made comparisons between these students and on-campus students in the same courses. Information was gathered either through questionnaires, college records, or interviews about course effectiveness, audience composition, and publicity effectiveness. Results showed no significant differences between on-campus students and students taking the televised courses in grades, although more students did not complete one of the televised courses as compared with on-campus students in the same course. Further, televised courses did not significantly reduce on-campus enrollment in the same courses, and students taking the televised courses like their convenience best. Analysis of the data on audience characteristics showed that the typical television student was a married female with some college education who was taking the course on a part time basis to get a college degree. Finally, the publicity data indicate that heavy publicizing of the courses probably led to greater enrollments, and that brochures were the most effective method. (SH) |
