Abstract: | "Television is a marvelous electronic device but it has not yet become an educational instrument." "In spite of all that may be said against it, television has a peculiar capacity for intimacy." "It may become the arm of teaching, but not the brain. Teaching and learning are human processes, not electronic processes." "Television teaching is a team job." Studio teacher and classroom teacher function together as a teaching team; curriculum planning and studio production must go hand in hand. TV can provide better in-service teacher training; through TV the teaching supervisor or training director can visit the class room. "Right now educational television needs to have some creative imagination applied to it. The chi squares can come laterp" (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
