11/28/36 As directions for later participation Successive steps should be definite and clearly stated ana sufficient time should be allowed for necessary note-taking. As direct teaching Subject should be appropriate for radio presentation. It should not duplicate the type of teach¬ ing usually done by class-room teachers unless local trained teachers of that subject are not available. Each presentation should be built upon learnings of earlier programs in the series and furnish leads into programs to follow. The listener should be referred to supplementary learning sources so that the radio lesson will become part of a larger learning process. Advance information should be made available to the teacher which will enable him to have necessary materials and supple¬ mentary aids at hand. There should be definite suggestions for listener activity. As source of opinion There should be a clear distinction between material presented as facts and material which is some¬ one's interpretation of the facts. The bias or specialized viewpoint of the program or speakers should be made clear. A speaker should be typical of the group represented or should be of sufficient prominence to make his individual viewpoint worthy of consideration. Total effect: In general, the point of view of a program should be socially constructive. Its effect, if any, on the ideals and attitudes of pupils should be to encourage the forma¬ tion of the kind which the school desires to have children form. The program should present a point of view, merely, and leave the acceptance or rejection of it to the intelligence of the listener, unless it be clearly obvious that the program represents special pleading and is not an objective presentation.
