Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to describe selected teaching practices and learning strategies related to agricultural courses delivered by videotape and to describe attitudes toward videotaped instruction. Graduates of an off-campus agriculture degree program were surveyed. The author discovered five learning strategies that the graduates routinely used. Graduates agreed that each of 15 instructional practices identified by the author from previous research was important to their learning and that their instructor(s) had used each. However, graduates provided higher mean scores for importance than for instructor use on each practice. Findings suggest that graduates held positive attitudes toward videotaped instruction.
