Abstract
The article focuses on how a supervisor can assist a teacher to maintain and redefine his role as educational media. It obviously is impossible to spread new ideas unless one keeps up with new ideas. In a very real, tedious sense, this means that the supervisor has to keep abreast of new methods and new materials. Of value also, is the kind of visitation program all too often discouraged for lack of travel funds and staff time. If possible, the supervisor should find where the newer materials are being tried nearby and obtain an evaluation from the users as to the effectiveness of their particular program. Supervisors need to become familiar with the guidelines set by the U.S. Office of Education and to urge faculty members to apply for small research grants. There is also a primary technology of teaching-learning materials. There is a need for adequate, easily retrieved materials, sufficient and easily run machines, and classrooms that are designed to allow for more than talk to take place.
