Summary

COI synopsis: Audio-visual aids. "Audio" is what we hear and "visual" what we see. Put them together, use them in the classroom, on film or on television, and we have a means of bringing knowledge from a few teachers to a great number of people. London Line shows African teachers as they master the techniques of writing, directing and producing the audio-visual aids with which they will increase the educational facilities of their own countries back-home in Africa.
