Abstract
Distance learning has had a checkered history of dramatic success and dismal failure. The most frequently cited criticism of distance learning is its passivity and the lack of opportunity for student‐teacher interaction. Through a point‐to‐point microwave system which allows two‐way audio and video interactivity, the Eastern Iowa Community College District has developed a model which involves the student actively in the learning process. The Televised Interactive Education System (T.I.E.) links Clinton Community College, Scott Community College, and Muscatine Community College to provide educational programs and services which meet the needs of the three communities.Keywords
