Regents review study options
By Stephanie McDuff Kansan staff writer
As the concept of education continues to evolve, students soon may be able to earn credit hours while surfing the Internet or popping in a video.
The Board of Regents is investigating expanding distance education to its universities, including the University of Kansas.
In distance education, also known as mediated instruction, faculty and students are separated by both distance and time. Distance education allows students to access course materials on or off campus using the Internet. Videotape-recorded courses allow students to attend class at their convenience.
"In its simplest form, it is an evolution of correspondence courses," said Tim Peterson, associate director of academic affairs for the Regents.
The Regents have been looking into academic extension courses. In the past five to 10 years, program interest has increased as technology has improved.
"Those technologies provide a critical component — and that's interaction," Peterson said.
A lack of interaction has some University professors concerned, despite the Regents demands for the new program.
Larry Draper, professor of microbiology and University Council president, said, "They have avoided the most important questions in this: Can things be taught effectively and can students learn this way?"
Peterson said educators had expressed fear that the Internet and video classes some day might replace today's concept of university life.
"No one, I think, of rational mind is really suggesting that the classrooms be boarded up," Peterson said. "There will always be a need and a
desire for traditional, residential education."
The concept of implementing distance education at the Regents institutions was developed last August, Peterson said. The Regents decided to review the distance-education policy.
The Regents established a special committee with representatives from the six Regents institutions and Washburn University.
An initial report was presented to the Regents in December. The report recommended a free-market approach to the learning system. However, the Regents said that the committee's plan went too far, too fast.
At a meeting two weeks ago, the Regents decided to defer action until June, when they will receive a new committee report.
Peterson said that the committee was preparing its report and discussing new degree programs and program review procedures for distance education.
Draper said, "They're just putting it off because it's too complicated."
The Regents are expected to take action at their meeting June 26, after an in-depth discussion on June 25.
The idea of multimedia teaching did not originate in Kansas.
Recently, about 20 universities in 13 western states combined efforts and resources to form a plan for the Western Governors University. This university, which has been dubbed the Virtual University, would provide distance education to students attending those institutions.
Peterson said some of the Regents had expressed interest in joining the Western Governors University to Kansas Gov. Bill Graves. For now, the plan to provide wide-scale Internet and video education to Kansas institutions remains only in the beginning stages.
Show to bring spirit to stage

Annual spring concert spotlights art of dance
Thirteen dancers pound their bare feet into the floor. Savage music pulsates. The dancers' moves are aggressive and almost violent, but at the same time precise and hypnotic. Twelve women swarm around one man as they bring to life a tribal rite from an age long forgotten.
This piece, titled Sensemaya, is set to music by Silvestre Revelta and was choreographed by Jerel Hilding, assistant professor of music and dance.
"The dance is based on a poem about the ritual killing of a snake," Hilding said. "I kept the choreography simple because complex moves couldn't capture the communal, primitive feel of the rite. Keeping it simple made it powerful."
Sensemaya is one of eight pieces that will perform in the University Dance Company's annual spring concert. The performances are at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Lied Center. This spring concert also is a part of National Dance Week.
For the first time, the University Dance Company will be joined by 75 musicians and 165 singers. The KU Symphony Orchestra, Concert Choir, University Singers and Women's Chorale will contribute their talents to the concert for two performances.
Sonata Albinoni, choreographed by William Lenoir, lecturer in dance, features five dancers spinning, leaping and gliding, capturing the music's intricate phrasing. Set to Tomaso AlBINONI uplifting Concerto Grosso, the dancers cover the entire stage.
Isabel Anderson, Madrid, Spain senior, will perform in Sonata Albinoni. Anderson said this piece was not as effortless as it seemed.
"It's very brainy and technically challenging," Anderson said. "I just hope I don't forget the whole thing when I'm on stage."
Christy Dalke, Overland Park junior,
also will perform in *Sonata Albinoni*.
"I like the freedom you have to express yourself with this piece," Dalke said. "It's not as constraining as ballet is."
The other pieces to be performed include:
Chichester Psalms , choreographed by Muriel Cohen and set to music by Leonard Bermstein.
Xochipili , choreographed by Patrick Suzeau and set to music by Carlos Chavez.
Side-by -Side Waltz, choreographed by Joan Stone and set to music by Johann Strauss Jr.
The Unanswered Question , choreographed by Patrick Suzeau and set to music by Charles Ives.
Cinderella , choreographed by Meli Kaye and set to music by Gioacchino Rossini.
Cycle of Fire, choreographed by Jerel Hilding and set to music by Prokofiev.
Kent O'Connor, Topeka senior and Shannon Smith, Topeka sophomore, perform Cycle of Fire. They will dance in the spring concert this weekend.

Program bolsters aspiring minority students
Kansan staff writer
By Umut Bayramoglu Kansan staff writer
Dozens of minority junior high students now have dreams of college and are closer to realizing those dreams because of the support and tutoring they have received from seven KU students working for the Minority Affairs Project Outreach Program.
"We help them build a self-esteem, help with their academics and inspire them to go to college," said Adela Salazar, Topeka junior and MAPOP counselor.
Gloria Flores, associate director of Minority Affairs, said that the counselors, who are student employees, tutored seventh-, eighth- and ninthgraders after school Monday through Thursday, in addition to the Saturday morning programs held at the Multicultural Resource Center.
"We emphasize math, science, English and cultural enhancement," she said.
MAPOP counselor Nathan Tohtsoni, Shiprock,
N. M., senior, said he mentioned his own personal experiences to encourage junior high students.
"I tell them how I never thought I was going to college, and that I'm a graduating senior now," he said.
"If made it you can not, is all I have to say to them."
If make it, you can too, is all I have to say to them.
Tohtsoni said he thought tutoring after school was effective.
"A couple students come in every day, and I really feel like we made a difference," he said.
Dan Leong, St. Louis senior and another MAPOP counselor, agreed.
"Their grades have been up from a D to B or C to an A," he said.
Leong said that counselors focused on the positive aspects of the students' talents during the Saturday programs.
He said the students' lack of confidence might be caused by lack of support from their schools and their families.
Carlos Zeiel, Miami graduate student, said that sometimes tutoring included counseling the students about their problems.
"Sometimes they come and talk to us when they don't want to talk to family," he said. "Most come from dysfunctional families, and it is a rough age, too."
Zeisel said that to help build self-confidence in the students, they enacted scenarios that would set examples.
"This is just to get them to go to college," he said. "If it's not KU, that's OK, and if it's Ivy League, that's great."
Flores said that reaction from the junior high teachers and principals had been positive but that the program needed financial help from the school district. The program is financed by Minority Affairs and Student Senate's Equal Opportunity Fund.
"We couldn't have this program if it wasn't for the Equal Opportunity Fund from the Student Senate, and this program could really flourish if school districts helped a little," she said.
