History Department Educational TV Presents Newer Teaching Method Members of the History Department instituted new concepts in teaching to encourage individual efforts toward a diversified education. Through ed- ucational television and a senior honors government class, students were given a better understanding of historic events, current world problems, and prin- cipal government ‘procedures. Educational televi- sion exposed students to an up-dated teaching process. Instructors of ETV were specifically trained in precise areas. Subjects were offered twice a week in group classes to achieve uniformity in pres- entation of material. The honors government class rendered exceptional students a better opportunity for self-expression. Those participating in debates and seminar discussions probed into the problems relating to elections in the United States and crises of the world. Through installation of modernized courses, the History Department brought a greater meaning to the education.
