Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to understand the nature of teaching- learning through plasma TV in government secondary schools. The study further examined the functions and roles of plasma TV instruction in classrooms and its influences. Besides, the roles of classroom teachers and the students learning situation through plasma TV were issues addressed in the study. To achieve these objectives, data were collected from the four purposely selected government secondary schools of Addis Ababa through questionnaires, interviews, document analysis and observation. The respondents were randomly selected by using lottery method to fill the questionnaires, whereas the participants were purposely selected on the basis of cooperativeness and experience to be interviewed. As the study was more of qualitative approach, the data were presented and analyzed in narrative form and those data gathered through questionnaires were analyzed quantitatively by using percentage as statistical method in addition to my own reflective analysis. The finding revealed that, almost all teachers and students didn’t take training on how to use plasma TV. Most teachers and students didn’t have positive attitude towards plasma TV. The needs of individual learner couldn’t be addressed through plasma teaching method and it couldn’t foster students’ critical thinking and reasoning abilities. Besides, it erodes the human relation between teachers and students. Therefore, the ministry of education, plasma TV developers and other concerned bodies should make some sorts of modification on the speed of transmission and on the medium of instruction. Teachers and students need to get sufficient know-how and skills to go hand in hand with plasma TV.
