"Good teachers have always recognised that education and life are one and have used everything at their command to vitalise the learning process through the five senses. In this endeavour the use of audio-visual aids has always been an integral part of education from traditional devices to modern technological devices like movies, radio, tape-recorders and television. These devices enable the English teacher to enrich and supplement the curriculum in providing perceptual and auditory experience as a basis for language development, thereby making English learning easy for pupils.
Presenting the purpose of education of the outset, the book incorporates detailed description on various audio-visual devices like magazines, newspapers, motion pictures, radio, television and computers. It also delves deep into various aspects related to English teaching such as forum, panel, symposium, curriculum designing and unified courses. The book provides creative activities and suggestions for English teacher for each and every audio-visual advice." (jacket)
