1. 简介。这是一份关于一个学期在商业网络上的数学项目的经验报告，与其说是项目本身，不如说是我们可以使用的、为了我们的目的而使用的强大手段。我说“我们的”不仅是指国家对数学训练中的教育困境（如果不是灾难）的广泛关注，而且还包括数学家的特殊含义，这意味着专家对自己的知识领域的嫉妒关注。十五周的时间让我相信，我们所能做到的最好的事情——即使是在纯数学这样被认为深奥的领域，在成熟的专业意义上也是最好的——在电视摄像机屏幕上以我们想要和需要的方式在未知的公众中得到回报。这个名为“空中大学”的项目刚刚在费城第六频道完成了第四个年头，是 WFIL 和特拉华谷地区大约 25 所院校联合开展的项目，其中包括罗格斯大学、利哈伊大学、费城的各种院校、林肯大学和特拉华大学。个别教员或部门向工作室的教育总监提交为期十五周的“课程”建议计划，从十月到一月或二月到五月，每周一次在十七或二十七分钟内开发。每个学期选择十门课程，讲师提供大纲，工作室根据大纲编制学期教学大纲，在每次演讲中宣布并以二十五美分的价格发送出去。就这样，每周有五个早上，从11:15到12:00，科目范围从身体化学、民间艺术到T。 S. Eliot 已经提出，并得到了充分的回应，以保证工作室即使在分配了资源的情况下也能继续执行该计划
1. Introduction. This is a report on a semester's experience with a mathematics program on a commercial network, concerned not so much with the program itself as with the powerful means at our disposal, for our purposes. I say" our" not only in the wide sense of national concern with an educational dilemma, if not disaster, in mathematical training but also in the special sense of mathematicians, with all that implies of the specialist's jealous concern for his own field of knowledge. Fifteen weeks convinced me that the best we can manage-best in a mature professional sense even in so supposedly esoteric a field as pure mathematics-pays off in that unknown general public at thereceiving screen of a television camera in precisely the ways we want and need. The program called University of the Air which has just completed its fourth year over Philadelphia's Channel 6 is a joint undertaking of WFIL and some twenty-five institutions of the Delaware Valley region, ranging from Rutgers and Lehigh through Philadelphia's varied list to Lincoln and the University of Delaware. Individual faculty members or departments submit to the studio's educational director suggested plans for a fifteen-week" course," October through January or February through May, to be developed in either a seventeen or twenty-seven minute period once a week. Ten courses are selected for each semester and the lecturers supply outlines from which the studio compiles a semester syllabus, announced at each talk and sent out for twenty-five cents. In this way, five mornings a week from 11: 15 to 12: 00, subjects ranging from Chemistry of the Body and Folk Art toT. S. Eliot have been presented, with sufficient response to warrant the studio's continuing the plan even with an allocated
