The research also seeks for developing positive attitudes towards providing learning sources in the secondary stage and encouraging educational institutions to establish learning sources centers even on the level of localities. The researcher followed various methods in conducting this study such as the historical, descriptive and case-study methods. One of the most important results is that learning sources have a great role in facilitating both processes of teaching and learning in the secondary stage where they satisfy the learner’s psychological and educational needs and care for the education technology. The secondary stage is really in bad need for learning sources centers to develop the learner’s abilities, developing the spirit of collective learning and developing individual responsibility. The lack of learning sources centers binds teachers to follow traditional teaching methods. So, they do not make use of modern learning materials or developing the skills of using education technology. (Author's abstract)
