Iowa Agriculture and Home Economics Experiment Station
Established at Iowa State in 1888, the Experiment Station fulfilled a Congressional charge for land-grant universities to develop research projects to advance practical science for the citizens of their states. The Experiment Station is not a building or location. It is a program of research that is supported in part with funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture and the State of Iowa. At Iowa State University, these public investments support research aimed at solving our state's most pressing concerns in the areas of food safety, food security, natural resource stewardship, and the economic health of Iowa communities.

Abstract

"Educational media alone do not influence the achievement of students. Researchers who have attempted to demonstrate the superior influence of educational technologies on achievement have been unsuccessful. On the other hand, researchers who have attempted to identify the appropriate techniques of message organization and the correct process of instructional delivery with technology have been more in the mainstream of what is considered appropriate." (Thompson, Simonson, and Hargrave, 1991, p. 1). Thompson et al.' s ( 1991) assertion supports that of Perraton (1987), who argued that communication media do not differ in their educational effectiveness.
