The transfer of assets of the Midwest Prop ain onA rborne Tele- vision In3truction, Inc., to GreatPlains National in mid-1971 re- sulted in a considerable swelling of theGPN offering. Nearly thirr of these series are now a part of this1972 Gaalog of Recorded Instruc- tion for Telev;sion. MPATI telecourses enjoyed wide use overthe United States du.- ing the 10-year existence of theIndiana-based organization. During 1969 and 1970 plore than 70 ETV facilitiesin 34 states used the MPATI service. More thanO0 uses of MPAI I courses were regis- tered those years. The recorded series that came to Gi eat PlainsNational directly from MPATI are designated on the pages of this catalogwith a repro- duction of the MPATI logotype. PPM Lay.. m A study undertaken in 1960 and 1961 by Jack McBride and W. C. Meierhenry of the University of Nebraska laid groundwork for establishment of the Great Plains National Instructional Television Library. The survey, made in cooperation with the United States Office of Education,re- vealed that many schools around the country had produced television courses foruse on their own systems...and that a good number of the courses were being "saved" by means of video tape recording. Further, it was found that many of these telecourses featured teachers of excellence and displayed some highly effective teaching methods. An idea formed: why not offer these recorded materials to other schools thatuse television as an instructional tool? Why not let other schools benefit from such teaching and the attendant opportunity to save a great deal of money always involved in initiating original production? To Test An Idea The McBride-Meierhenry report also ascertained that optimum use of such material could hest be realized by the establiFhment of distribution centers. .. orlibraries. Thus, the Great Plains pilot experiment to test this idea of video tape exchange was estab- lished in 1962 at the University of Nebraska. Title VII monies from the U.S. Office of Education financed the Great Plains Library through its first four years. Enthusiastic response to the experiment allowed the Library, in 1966, to discontinue its fiscal relationship with the USOE and become a wholly self- supporting operation. The basic mission of the Library was, and continues to be: to identify, and to make available and distributeon a lease basisvideo taped instructional television courses to educational institutions and agencies desiring such material. From Small to Something Else Great Plains National's beginning was inauspicious. Only one course was offered the first year of the Library's existence . .with but two uses of the course. Today's report is, as they say on Mad Ave., something else. The Great Plains offer- ing has grown to more than 100 recorded courses and related teacher utilization and in-service materials. Course-uses of GPNITL-distributed materials have increased hun- dreds-fold over the years...and students and viewers in virtually all the United States and in Canadaare benefiting from Great Plains National's reccrded instruction. The GPNITL offering covers a broad spectrum of scholastic levels and general interests. and ranges widely in subject area availabilities. Distribution of Great Plains' recorded courses is through duplicate video tape record- ings made from duplication masters held at the Library in Lincoln.Individual and fresh recordings are made for each user to meet the tape width, scan configuration and tape speed requirements of his playback equipment. The Use-Lease Plan The user normally provides his own video tape; however, under certain conditions, such tape may be leased from the Library.
