Audiovisual aids were widely employed by the armed services during and after World War II.
This and much research over the intervening years indicate that, when skillfully used,
audiovisual aids can lead to significant gains in recall, thinking, interest, and imagination.
The audiovisual method was first developed by the CREDIF term in France in the 1950s.
This method is intended for teaching everyday language at the early stage of second/foreign
language learning. It was based on a behaviourist approach, which held that language is acquired
by habit formation. Based on assumption that foreign language is basically a mechanical process
and it is more effective if spoken form precedes written form. The stress was on oral proficiency
and carefully- structured drill sequences (mimicry/memorisation) and the idea that quality and
permanence of learning are in direct proportion to amount of practice carried out.
Objectives:
a) Selective
b) Preparation
c) Physical control
d) Proper Presentation
e) Response
2. The materials are explained by the teacher through pointing, demonstrating, selective
listening, question and answer.

and filmstrips or by language laboratory practice.
Examples:

Slide projector, Transparency, Flash-cards, Print materials etc.
C. Audiovisual Aids examples are LCD project, Film projector, TV, Computer, VCD player, Virtual
Classroom, Multimedia etc.

New materials necessitated extensive use of equipment with all associated problems of
black-out, extension leads, carrying tape-recorders from classroom to classroom.
Technical Problems
Students Distractions
