00:00:15.340 - 00:00:53.470

a simulation function very shortly. Okay. The E. D. P. Squared program is a special program for motivation. We used the machines that you've seen in this room to motivate the students in reading and mathematics. Some of them are deficient in these

00:00:53.470 - 00:01:10.290

fields areas and some of them aren't. We've used the machines in conjunction with Black history in conjunction with social studies, in conjunction with mathematics, in conjunction with the total world of business to motivate the students to do better in other areas. In other words, actually using

00:01:10.290 - 00:01:23.740

the machine is just sort of a reward for getting all the other things out of the way. It's that. And it also gives them an insight into the real world, the world of tomorrow. Because with these machines you can control the world of tomorrow because this

00:01:23.740 - 00:01:44.230

is where the future lies in data processing and computer sciences. And if we expose the Children to them now they'll have a better chance in the future. I'm introducing a bill next week which will extend the provisions of SB 28 which is the program the bill

00:01:44.230 - 00:01:58.890

which established this program and other programs of the compensatory education system. I'm inducing that bill next week so that it will carry on for another three years. Do you think there any possibilities of getting it through? I think it's a very good chance of getting through

00:01:58.890 - 00:02:13.920

because I think people are recognizing the worth of this program. I think it's an outstanding job and I'm hopeful that we'll be able to continue it. The program here at Woodrow Wilson High is more complicated than the one offered at Pelton here. The students are taught

00:02:13.930 - 00:02:35.270

to use the electronic data processing machine as a tool to help them achieve their academic goals. Later this afternoon, parents of all students involved in this program we'll get together to discuss It's merits Velvet Davis for eyewitness news at Woodrow Wilson High, mm hmm. Okay,
