A bimonthly report describes a recent work to determine the use of satellite educational television in remote and isolated rural communities, especially those inhabited by native Alaskans. It is believed that educational satellite communication has its greatest potential in Alaska because of these conditions. The report describes the scope of the effort but specifically precludes interim assessments. Six study areas are listed and specifications are given. An outline for the final report and management procedures are included, along with the work schedule for future activities. (SK)
