The rapid advance of science and technology in today's world threatens to heighten, rather than minimize, the coming crisis in education. This paper advocates that the technological advances now possible must include advances also in the methods of education. Those now engaged in modern engineering and science must apply their ingenuity and resources to major creative efforts in the art of teaching. As with all other intellectual tasks in the coming period, the educational process must also be visualized as a "man-machine" process. The brain and senses of the human teacher must be extended by new engineering systems. This paper discusses specific examples, including feedback as a concept in automatic or semi-automatic lecturing, and stresses that by removing from the duties of the teacher those tasks which can be done as well or better by machines the teacher is elevated to those tasks requiring the superior intelligence and sensitivity of a trained human being.
