Information storage technologies are changing, so this project is focused on the future and the use of new videodisc technology. A model plant science inquiry-learning tool was developed for vocational agriculture students using advanced video and computer technology. The interactive videodisc lesson, which focuses on plant identification, was designed to increase learning and allow teachers to spend more time with students.

Abstract:At a time when medical educators are actively revising the undergraduate medical school curriculum to make it more responsive to exigencies ofthe 21st century, the use of interactivevide.odisc technology may well prove to be a significant addition. Using interactive videodisc technology may be instrumental in reducing the amount of a large lecture didactic learning and improving small group problem-solving sessions that better synthesize factual knowledge. It also provides important and valuable exposure to varieties of computer technology that play an increasingly important role in training and medical practice.

The videodisc is a recently developed technology that combines the interactive, individualized qualities of the computer with the visual qualities of television, film, and filmstrips. The videodisc, available publicly since 1978, has great potential for improving the quality of instruction for the deaf. It exhibits tremendous flexibility in the presentation of instructional materials. It can present all other media forms—films, filmstrips, books, etc.—and provide multi-media learning experiences in which each medium is used to its best advantage. Since it can present television or film materials, it offers a high degree of visual stimulation, critically important in the education of the deaf.

The Media Development Project for the Hearing Impaired at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is currently investigating possible uses of an interactive videodisc player to provide instructional materials for the deaf. The paper describes some general characteristics of the deaf learner and discusses the videodisc as a means for marketing computer-based visual instructional materials, hardware functions and possible design approaches using a variety of instructional techniques. It further describes one experimental production, for an interactive videodisc, based on the needs for materials generated in the MDPHI project to develop basic reading skills for the hearing impaired.
