Abstract
In the mid-1960s what was then publicized as the world’s largest educational television broadcasting system began beaming core instruction into the public schools of American Samoa—about 300 classrooms in all. By 1980 television was playing only a minor, supplementary role in instruction, and many classroom receivers were unworkable. This article traces the rise and decline of television instruction in that South Seas island possession and looks at some lessons to be learned from the experience.
