Mass Teaching Of English
Unesco is co-operating with the British Government in promoting the welfare of about 30,000 Africans employed in the Government’s great plan for growing ground-nuts in East Africa. To help them to learn English, films, film-strips apd other mass communication methods will be used.
An expert in these newly-develop-ed methods of mass language teaching has already been in Tanganyika to find how they work out with the people there. The results of his experiments will be useful in other parts of the world where language is an obstacle to Unesco’s policy of carrying out fundamental education —that is, teaching people to read and write, and teaching them hygiene, child welfare, and the principles of living together as a peaceful and prosperous community.
