ABSTRACT

This chapter devotes that some of the teachers were observed and interviewed in the schools to the examples of their practice together with a discussion of some of the changes which are required in schools to enable the video recorder to be used. Only three of the infants' teachers took part in the initial research, and they were the only teachers together with a teacher responsible for audio-visual aids who were interviewed on the initial visits. The two teachers in the second year used the television in more traditional ways. The head teacher firmly believed that it was possible to provide a resource library in the school and if teachers used this effectively small-group teaching using secondary stop/start techniques should be the common practice for all teachers. The first school was an infant school with six classes, which had increased to seven by the final visit.
