AUDIOVISUAL 2
Abstract
Audio‐visual aids begin, as all good followers of Edward Short will tell you, with talk, chalk and blackboard; and should never be allowed to end in a mass of blurting, blinking machinery. Taking in an array of sound arguments for not dehumanizing education, the traditional teacher attitude is, at base, the reflex of a profession bewildered by the mechanical tools which the commercial world seems determined to foist upon it. Machines often demand quite simple manipulatory skills for which teachers aren't trained, but more pertinently they suggest ordered, efficient teaching methods — a combination which leads to fewer, better trained teachers. It is not the A/V aids, however, which are the crux of the matter — the advantages of providing a more varied learning environment are largely accepted.
