The Construction (Using Multi-Media Techniques) of Certain Modules of a Programmed Course in Astronomy-Space Sciences for NASA Personnel of The Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland.

This paper describes the development of a self-instructional multi-media course in astronomy-space sciences for non-technical NASA personnel. The course consists of a variety of programed materials including slides, films, film-loops, filmstrips video-tapes and audio-tapes, on concepts of time, space, and matter in our solar system and galaxy. General objectives of the program, and the evaluation of the achievement of these objectives are discussed. Proposals for the development of three additional autoinstructional modules are presented. In addition, the author states his intention of using control and experimental groups to evaluate the success or failure of the program. (LC)
