Machines Aid Teaching Now Today's teacher has a nodding acquaintance with machines that talk or teach or take roll. Many students are now accus- tomed to television sets, over- head projectors and electronic equipment used in language lab- oratories. But modern technology -- al- ready so widely applied for use in the business world -- is tak- ing a direction in, the field of education that may mean much more to students, teachers and school administrations. So reports the U.S. National Education Association in a quick survey of the trends. Machines are being developed for classroom work that not only talk to. students, but answer their questions as well. They guide students through subject material and even assign home- work. To the teacher all this means not only the ability to handle more students, it also means mor: attention to students on an individual basis. Richard Harsh, of the Los Angeles County Superintend- ent's office, writes in a mono- graph that rapid advance of data processing. "has hastened the advent of automated educa- tion'. 2 His monograph predicts that by 1970 universities and second- ary schools will be linked by data processing machines and other methods. Some systems already are in operation. They make way for students to work ir their own cubicles (called carrels) and to instruct them- selves with the aid of a me- chanical tutor linked to a aa- tionwide system. Use of such systems, it is said, can make it possible for teach- ers to call on regional centers for help on special problems of instruction--thus, in effect, add- ing specialist teachers by long- distance.
