| Abstract: | For the past fifteen years, new techniques and methods, most particularly audio-visual ones, have made it possible to foresee a profound renewal in the training and retraining of teachers. To name some, the use of tape recorders, and then closed-circuit television, the production of anthologies on films, radio and television programmes, which make up an integral part of a system of training at a distance. In industrialised countries, these methods are very unequally used; in some of them, they do not even have as yet a system of retraining at a distance. Also conditions vary greatly according to the training institutes. Some only use the most traditional methods more or less perfected; others, well equipped with projectors of all sorts, laboratories and closed-circuit television, try to introduce really new methods and mediafor teaching. And lastly, some new procedures have hardly gone outside the research centres. |
