Teleconference and videotape as teaching tools for multi-university instruction

The combination of several existing technologies and application of them in a regional inter-university series of training programs is described. Using teleconference and videotape, the Central Conference of University Training Programs in Developmental Disabilities has provided its 15 member centers with a set of training materials that would be unavailable to them on an individual basis. Six program series have been produced and a seventh is being planned. The developmental process and the techniques employed are discussed.
