T. V. to A course taught entirely by ; closed circuit television will be offered at USC for the first time in the sprina semester, Dr. Richard Kasschau, professor of psychology said. According to .Kasschau, Introduction to Psychology was griinally taped to be shown to igh school students for dvanced college credit. However, since the content of the course is the same as, and the presentation improved over the course taught on campus, it was decided to use the film for a university audience. "The beauty of the program is that there is no set schedule requirements a student has to meet," Dr. Kasschau said. "A particular program will be shown 15 times in a two day period and the student can come nd catch a lecture whenever he as time." 2009 Green Street 10 until 10 Mon-Sal MATERIALS FOI THE JOY] Due to This cou; Good until Dec.16. 1972 911 Su teach psj If a student is completely befuddled at a lecture, he can come back and watch the lec ture over again, or ask ques tions of the graduate assistant on duty during the period that the films are being shown. "Another advantage of this program is opportunities for presentation the medium of television provides," Dr. Kasschau said. "We have been able to show experiments involving small children and animals--subjects that would be nervous with a whole class watching." The standard Psychology 101 course includes lectures and demonstrations by other mem bers of the psychology depart ment, Dr. Kasschau said. "With the modern improved demonst rations, and the variety of lec tures, the quality of the course will be above any before," Included in the program will be a version of an actual sensitiv ity group and a program given by a world expert hypnotist.
