The Huron Expositor, 1976-11-25, Page 14Waterloo has pioneered the
taped lecture system in its
correspondence program. No
other university in Capada had
tried tapes until 1968 when UW
began sending them out to
off-campus science students.
Most of these ear ly students
were high school teachers seeking
to upgrade their qualifications.
This fall, close to 3,500
students enrolled in UWcorres-
pondence courses, from every
province in Canada, and from
several other countries as well.
More than 150 courses are offered
via the taped lecture system. It is
possible to obtain a 11W bachelor
of arts degree in psychology or
history, or a bachelor of science
degree or bachelor of mathema-
tics degree, completely by
correspondence. In addition, it is
possible to obtain master of
science and master of
mathematics degrees by
correspondence.
"There's been steady growth
and the future for these courses
seems very promising," says
Dr. Dixon, "particularly now that
they are on the semester basis,
The key to our success has been
the taped lecturg system, a
course which makesA, taking a
correspondence course much
more like a real class
experience."
. Other things UW does to
promote student interest: (1)
questionnaries are sent to all
correspondence students
half-way through each t erm, so
they can evaluate the course and
the professor; (2) students are
invited to an annual lass party on
campus, and some of them come
from 200 and 300 miles away to
attend it.

If you've been thinking you'd
like to take a ,crack at a University
course, but missed the deadline
last Septemer ..., all is not losti
The University of Waterloo
announces the sernesterizatiqn of
its correspondence courses which
means those wanting to take them
can enroll at three different, times
during the year - at the middle of
December and at the middle of
March, as well as September.
"Until now, our corrspon-
dence courses started in
September and ran through into
April," says Dr. Ted Dixon, ph
ysics professor and associate
director of UW's correspondence
program. "This year, anyone who
missed the Septemer deadline
may enroll now for the courses
that will start the first of January.
Or, he or she may enroll later for
the courses starting the first of
May."
This new• flexibility is expected
to prove of widespread interest.
For instance, it is now possible to
take a four-month course running
from September through
December ; drop out for the
January - April' period, and take
another beginning the first of
-• May. Each four-month course will
count as one-half a credit towards
U.W degree.
The final event of Centennial
Year at Brucefield United Church
will be held on Sunday,
November 28. This will be a
Congregational Celebration
marking the opening of the first
church.
Dr. John McIntosh began life in
the Brucefield area and has gone
on into the world of education to
leave his mark. He began teach-
ing in Huron County and went on
to teach in Toronto. He became
Inspe ctor of Schools in North
York.. Dr. McIntosh has been
active in education and the
church. He has been on various
Boards and Councils with special
concern for the exceptional child,
the emotionally disturbed child
and Ontario Crippled Children..
Wheatpeckers
make lasagna .
'Meeting five of the Seaforth
111 Wheaty Wheatpeckers was
held at the home of Catherine
and Brenda Coleman on
November 6 at 7:30 p.m. The girls
opened the meeting with the 4-H
pledge. The roll call was "three
things that I have learned about
flour", Mrs. Coleman read from
her leaders' pamphlet and each
girl had a turn reading aftqn-rilieir
members pamphlet on From
Snacks to Banquets and Around
the Clock with Cereals.
Brenda Coleman and Mrs.
Coleman demonstrated how ' to
make lasagna. ,Each girl enjoyed
the lasagna.
Dr. Dixon says Waterloo
rejected the idea of a completely
open correspondence system ..
where one could start any month
in the year .... because of its
concern to make the correspond-
ence experience come a close as
poSsible to the on-campus
experience.
"We try to make our
correspondence students feel
they are paft of a class," he says.
"We send them taped lectures
which they listen to in their
homes. We also send them the
names and home addresses of
other students who may live
nearby . . so they can get in
touch with each other and interact
just as students on campus do.
We send them assignments which
they return to the professor for
marking according to a pre-
arranged schedule. Aftdr, he's
marked them the professor
prepares a tutorial tape which is
sent to each member of the class.
This tape includes comments as
to how the students are doing and
where some of them may be going
wrong. So each student can
actually compare himself or
herself with other members of the
class. In other words the student
gets a feel for how things are
going."
Dr. McIntosh will speak on
"The Church that was, is and
may be.
A social hour' will follow the
morning service which will be
held at 10:00 a.m.

AS a resident and businessman in the Town
of• Seaforth, I am concerned about the
existing problems of the town.
It is very easy for us to sit back and
complairl about decisions of the present
council, but unless we are prepared to act,
our concern means nothing.
If elected as councillor, I know I will have a
lot to learn.
I will need your help!
I believe a councillor should be a voice of
the people, expressing their ideas, problems,
and 'feelings, not Just his own.
It will be your duty to express your views to
those you elect to council.
I would like to be your voice on council.
