In the early years of television, educational specialists believed that it would be very useful
in teaching and learning. Many schools have brought television sets, intending to use them
effectively to improve the quality of education; but actually they are rarely used properly in
classrooms. Meanwhile, children spending the majority of their out-of-school hours
watching TV and their typical school days proceed as if television did not exist.

There are some explanations for the failure of television to get the interest of the teachers.
Firstly, the schools that purchased television sets have not set aside money for equipment
repairs and maintenance so these television sets are sooner and later out of work. Secondly
these schools have not found an effective way to train teachers to integrate television into
their ongoing instructional programs. Lastly, most teachers do not regard the quality of
television and its usefulness in the classroom.
