INCREASING THE PRODUCTIVITY OF COLLEGE TEACHING.

Cannon, Arthur M.
- Abstract
The article discusses various ways to increase the productivity of college teaching. An important and obvious way to meet the challenge of increased enrollment will be to increase the productivity of teachers. The commonest of all means to increase output is to improve and add to the worker's tools. The techniques of radio, television and particularly the moving picture, can greatly amplify the effectiveness of work. In addition to improvement of classroom facilities, the improvement of office facilities will go far to relieving teaching talent of diversionary demands on time and effort. In order to make available teaching talent and effort for the main task of teaching, it is essential in most colleges and universities that teaching staff be provided more adequate assistance from office staffs. Teachers should be better trained and better supervised, that involves class observation by administrators and fellow faculty members for the mutual information and improvement of the observed and the observer.
