A Branching Teaching Machine Using Motion Pictures

Donald G. Perrin

A research project at USC required a teaching machine to present sound motion-picture information in a stop-start manner with the capability of branching to different sequences on the basis of the student's response. Four projectors allow immediate access to the branches, while relay logic maintains synchronism between the machines. The unit, which employs standard film production procedures and off-the-shelf equipment, is low in cost and simple to program.
