Classes develop
teaching machine
for college use
The public will get a first-hand
look at an automatic teaching
machine just completed by one of
Pasadena City College’s engineer¬
ing and electronics classes this
Friday evening during open
house on the Lancer campus.
Lawrence A. Johannsen’s En¬
gineering and Electronics 135
Class has completed the A ver¬
sion of a mechanical device to
help aid the classroom teacher.
Work on the
В
version of this in¬
strument will start shortly.
The machine, which is made up
of various electronic equipment
plus an IBM card punch and 35
mm slide projector, will be used
mainly for testing purposes. Aft¬
er a student’s response during a
test, the equipment will tabulate
the scores and go on to the next
question.
This automatic device can also
be used with the normal 5 to 15
minute lecture. After the lecture
a test using the equipment and
a black board will determine whe¬
ther the students learned any¬
thing from the lecture session.
The teaching device is capable
of handling 80 questions per test.
“My class designed and built
this machine,” stated Johannsen.
“Our students took over the proj¬
ect with the help of a student
engineer.”
The entire cost of the project
was roughly $100. Small parts
such as transistors were donated
by Hoffman Co. International
Business Machines donated the
card punch for the project and
surplus components were given
to PCC by Electro-Data Co.
“Our electronics classes will be
using the machines first,” said
Johannsen. “Eventually we hope
to get this machine into all class¬
rooms.”
Johannsen also added that the
В
version of the automatic teach¬
ing machine, which will include
audio, will be started next se¬
mester.

vention, said at that time, “How
did the communist conspiracy get
so strong? ... It wasn’t under
Republicans that 600 million peo¬
ple disappeared behind the Iron
Curtain in the first five years aft¬
er World War II. . . . In fact the
record will show that Republi¬
cans opposed these steps every
time they were taken.”
Judd, who will speak on some
aspect of the above, received his
BA and MD degrees from the
University of Nebraska, and has
been presented with honorary
doctorate degrees from 15 other
