Abstract
The current practice of physically transporting professors to remote areas of a state to teach classes is a tremendous drain on faculty time. In such instances, it would be advantageous to adopt or develop a more efficient statewide instructional distribution system. Talkback Television (TBTV) is one such system currently being employed in the State of Oklahoma. TBTV is proving to be a successful method of instructional distribution which enables individuals throughout the state to remain in their home areas and enroll in classes offered by several higher education institutions. In addition to effectively and efficiently meeting its objective of making “quality postsecondary educational opportunities available to Oklahomans on a statewide basis,” it also provides several other benefits to the state's higher education systems.
