University resources sharing using the CTSNASA-Ames Research Center and Stanford University in California, and Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, are designing a curriculum-sharing experiment which will use compressed digital television. The experiment will permit evaluation of the potential of curriculum sharing by two universities which are geographically distant, but capable of transmitting and receiving television signals. The evaluation of the curriculum sharing per se will include inputs from faculty, staff and students at both institutions. Accessibility to and acceptability of each other's curriculum will be studied and recorded. Adjustments to differences in academic terms, class meeting times, teaching styles and similar issues will be closely monitored. It is hoped that this experiment will provide long-range planners the kind of information which they will need when designing large-scale educational telecommunications systems for the future.
