The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions and
attitudes of the Diploma of Educational Studies (Tertiary) students
towards Educational Television. The subjects of the study were compared
with a group of teachers college lecturers who had not studied
overseas. The Diploma of Educational Studies (Tertiary) students who
came to Canberra, Australia, to study, were surveyed at three
different stages, (i) Three Weeks in Australia, (ii) Ten Months in
Australia, and (iii) After twelve months back in Papua New Guinea. The
statistical analysis of individual questions showed no statistical
difference in the attitudes and perceptions, based on the questions
asked, while the statistical analysis of the groups , based upon the
questionnaires, also showed that the sample groups were not
statistically different from each other. As this study was a pilot no
firm conclusions can be drawn as to the difference in attitudes and
perceptions of the D.E.S. (Tertiary) lecturers about Educational
Television in Papua New Guinea. Areas of disagreement identified , were
compared to those problems that emerged from the investigation of
Educational Television in American Samoa and The Ivory Coast. Issues
that required possible further investigation were then identified.
