PHASE VI Teacher readsIt was on my way to Canada on a fellowship in 1960, that I saw a TV set for the first time, at a hotel in London. I had not the faintest idea then, that on my return to India, I would be heading Indian Television.Half way through my sojourn in Canada, I was directed to join a team from New Delhi to study School T V Projects in the USA. Soon, I was posted as officer on Special Duty(TV) and was working on the Ford Foundation sponsored School TV Project. We took care to see that the teaching fraternity itself decided what role TV should play as an aid to classroom teaching. Next came the UNESCO aided Social Education Project where teleclubs viewed socially relevant programmes and followed them up with a discussion. There was a marked increase in social awareness, as a result of this system. Television’s first steps were clearly in the night direction.
