| Abstract: |
These papers are related to the basic comprehensive research and development plan of the Eastern Regional Institute for Education (ERIE). The first paper, Improving Process Education: A Comprehensive Plan by Burton G. Andreas, describes the comprehensive plan and introduces the succeeding papers. The goals of the program are to improve process education in elementary schools by: 1) assisting administrators with the selection and installation of process-oriented curricula; 2) providing, and causing to be provided, the necessary inservice preparation for teachers; 3) monitoring the curriculum installation by offering regular assessment and consultant services; and, 4) using evaluative feedback to improve upon these installation and diffusion strategies. The other papers are: 1) Analysis of Process Curricula, by Henry P. Cole and Albert Seferian; 2) Curriculum Augmentation and Validation, by Henry P. Cole; 3) Curriculum Installation and Diffusion Strategies, by James M. Mahan; 4) Evaluation of Curricular Programs, by Richard C. Wallace, Jr. and Richard Shavelson; and, 5) Variables Affecting Installation by Richard S. Andrulis. References and statistical tables are included. (Author/DJB) |
