Abstract | A comparative study was made of Mexican secondary teachers in the Telesecundaria (TS), which utilizes televised instructional programs, and in the Ensenanza Directa (ED), which does not. The aim was to describe the teaching done in the TS system, to compare the two systems, and to examine statistically the relation of teaching and learning activities to student achievement in Math and Spanish. Most teachers relied on lecturing, allowing little student participation or group work. Where a few teachers, usually the better educated ones, did encourage student participation, student achievement was higher. The following implications seemed warranted: 1) the educational level of the individual should be a criterion for selection as a teacher; 2) teachers should provide students with an introduction to televised instructional programs, to encourage fuller participation; 3) teachers should spend more time in planning their classes; and 4) teacher training should prepare teachers to rely less on lecturing and more on activities which stress individualized learning, student participation, and group work.
