This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Systems View Chapter 2 - 5 Generations of DE, New technology: mail system made it possible to provide open access to education, 1990s: Video Conference uses codecs to transmit compressed data, 1965: Development of the satellite technology (Early Bird) resulted in delivering educational courses to remote areas (Alasa, Pan-Pacific. Signals transmitted to stations, then locally distributed to networks., Educational software became a major business. made DE more accessible, political push to remove barrier results in lack of nation-wide open university, Universities in various states lack of political push to remove barrier, Teacher-student relationship one to many / synchronous: Fourth generation Four generation of DE: Teleconferencing, 1982: National University Teleconferencing Network (NUTN). A consortium of institutions that share the costs, the designing, delivering, and the teaching of content. demonstrates Elements of new form of teleconference consortia/ market-driven DE., Teacher-student relationship one to one / asynchronous: First generation First Generation: Mail, Tech advances in networking allowed the devlopment of 1980s: National Sciences Fundation (NSF) Net (NSFN) connected universities and research organizations. In early 1990s, emails, data exchanges, and bulletins were possible., 1960s/70s: PLATO: allowed a number of sites to comunicate via dial-up or dedicated connections. made DE more accessible, Elements of new form of teleconference consortia/ market-driven DE. Such as Members in the consortia compete to offer the best quality and most timely material. The market (student interest) began to dictate what was taught, not the interests of the academics., 1964: AIM Articulated Instructional Media Project joining (articulating) various communication technologies Cater to various learning styles, proper regulation over: 1) faculty 2) funding 3) academic rewards results in lack of nation-wide open university, to provide open access to education noted in early school of thought in the US 1904: "Wisconsin idea": boundaries of the uni is the boundaries of the sate, mid 1930s: TV Successful? No, because programming appeared amaturish compared to the more polished commercial stations, 1990s: Video Conference became cheaper with the development of fiber-optic telephone lines., More so than radio. Ford Foundation contributed millions of dollars in grants for edu. broadcasting. Federal involvement? 1972: FCC required all cable operators to provide an educational channel. Usually university-level courses., 1987: Star Schools Program Assistance Act. Funding to promote the use of telecommunications in K-12 level courses with matching funds from the state level. Impacted DE in K-12 level Facilitated hardware setup., Teacher-student relationship many to many / (a)synchronous: Fifth generation Fifth Generation of DE: Internet/Web-based Education
