A series of eight programmes
Introduced by Dr. F. Hilliard
The teaching of English is central to the whole business of Secondary Education. In probably no other subject have teachers been so eager to experiment. and so self-critical of their aims and methods. Yet good teachers of English are so individualistic in their teaching that it is very hard to distinguish what they have in common.
Fred Flower, author of the recent book Language and Education, introduces a number of English teachers using a wide range of different teaching methods, and finds evidence of similar basic principles and attitudes in their work.
The Subculture of Secession by Kenneth Rexroth

Sound poems by Ernst Jandl orchestrated and spoken by the author himself in a production with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop
Ernst Jandl is one of the leaders of the international sound and concrete poetry movement. His success at the Royal Albert Hall on June 11, 1965, when his reading was enthusiastically received by an audience of six thousand. demonstrated his work's power on a large scale. Tonight its intellectual subtlety and musical ingenuity as well as its vigour and humour are emphasised by the use of radiophonic techniques, including speeding up and slowing down of tapes, multiple recording, echo and feedback.
Introduced by GEORGE MACBETH
