BBC Technical College Programmes

Abstract

DURING THE past few months some hundreds of lecturers in Technical Colleges and Colleges of Further Education throughout the country have been invited to give their views on two experimental television programmes produced by the BBC and dealing with aspects of Engineering Science. A smaller number of principals and lecturers have been involved in exploratory discussions concerning the part that television and sound broadcasting might play in the Technical College curriculum. Some lecturers have even allowed ‘a man from the BBC’ to sit through lectures, to wander about the laboratory during practical sessions and to talk to their students. All this activity has been in connection with the preparation of new television and sound series designed to supplement the teaching of Engineering Science and English for the General Course in Engineering.
