Abstract
IT WAS FOUND THAT EDUCATIONAL EXPENDITURES HAVE TAKEN AN INCREASINGLY LARGER PIECE OF THE TOTAL NATIONAL BUDGET, FROM 19% IN 1960 TO 28% IN 1971. BUT, IT ALSO WAS DISCUSSED THAT A FEASIBLE "BREAK-EVEN" POINT COULD BE REACHED AT WHICH ITV EXPENSES EQUAL THOSE OF THE TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY AND EVEN DROP SHARPLY WHEN THE CLASS SIZE IS INCREASED. WITH ITV, IMPROVEMENTS DEFINITELY CAN BE SEEN IN LEARNING GAINS AND THEIR RAMIFICATIONS-HIGHER EARNINGS OF GRADUATES, LOWER SOCIAL WELFARE COSTS, BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE AND GRADUALLY INCREASED EFFICIENCY IN EDUCATIONAL METHODS.
