Introduction
As a distance education institution which acknowledges the importance of
media as the vehicle for transferring knowledge from teachers to learners ,
Universitas Terbuka (UT) continues to develop various kinds of media which can
function as reliable and proper vehicles . In reality, the effort is not
straightforward due to some constraints in the development process and media
utilization of course materials. However, the constraints should not cause UT to
be discouraged in giving the best for its students and the community. This is
because UT is aware that media is very vital component in the delivery of
distance education .
