Abstract
Television can be said to have attached to it some of the difficulties of the `black box'. Should it be used in physics teaching and if so how? Such is the present investment in it that we cannot afford to wait for research before taking action. We need to `back hunches', trying as many approaches and techniques as possible.In teaching science by television a considerable body of experience has already been achieved. In physics we have the evidence gained chiefly from the two BBC series Middle School Physics (for pupils) and How and Why? (for teachers).Recently the production of 8 mm loop material drawn from television programmes has been tried, and the indications are that `composite' courses, using many interlocking techniques, will be developed in the future.
