Lewis was lecturing via closed-circuit television in Applied Math 201, a graduate-level course which he took last year as a junior. He was demonstrating a technique he invented over the summer which makes it possible to visualize in a matter of minutes a complex mathematical transformation...
Although closed circuit television has been used in applied math courses before, it has always been to demonstrate some aspect of how to program a computer, Anthony G. Oettinger, Gordon McKay Professor of Applied Mathematics, said yesterday. This was the first time it had been done actually to teach mathematics...

...televised lectures and demonstrations, either live or on tape, has firmly established itself at many big public universities as the key to more efficient scheduling. Last year 28,000 of Ohio State's 41,000 students took some of their work, mostly math and biology, by television. Michigan State carried 27 courses a term over a TV network that linked 137 classrooms and 300 monitors, required a 20-page log to itemize the offerings. The University of Minnesota reaches 30,000 of its students a year through 50 televised courses, mostly on tape. Colorado State University is using...
Though best in math during his school years. Nadav will talk about almost anything. "The Americans are good but naive," he says. "In Vietnam, they try to help people but they don't know how." He has just read a book on Mongolia, which he liked very much, and offers to lend it out. He does not hate the Arabs--except for the Syrians--or laugh at their ludicrous performance in the air. How can you fix or fly a plane, he queries, when you never see a machine most of your life...
