The installation of a closed-circuit video television system and learning research center are being planned at Lock Haven State College. 

The rising enrollment in teacher education has made it virtually impossible for all prospective elementary school teachers to have direct experience with children in the campus laboratory school. It is felt that the installation of a closed-circuit television system will expand the opportunity for student-teacher observations and an analysis of teaching and learning methods in the campus school. 

Future uses of the television system will include videotaped lessons of superior learning situations in the secondary school curriculum filmed in the public-school classrooms and utilized by teams of instructors working with prospective students. Also, it was recognized by the study group that college students working with instructors using the new medium would be better prepared to use such facilities when they become teachers in the public schools. 

The study committee recommended a budget to the president of the college. The program costing $81,000 has been included in the college budget for 1966-67. This item has received a favorable at the college budget hearing in the department of public instruction.
