Training and Model Exchange Project, 1981-1982.

Overview & Synopsis

The report describes 63 projects in the Southeastern United States nominated as exemplary or unique by members of the Council of Administrators of Special Education, Incorporated. Descriptions of each project include information on target population, adoption requirements, funding requirements, materials available, and contact person. The intent is to encourage potential adopters to get in touch with the contact person for further information about the project. The 63 projects are organized into 6 categories (sample types of projects in parentheses): technology (microcomputers used in management, word processing, computer assisted instruction); secondary and vocational education (competency based certificate/diploma program, affective resource curriculum, experience-based career education); staff development/inservice (training Impartial hearing officers, teaching sign language to classroom teachers, catheterization); special student services (precision teaching, program for latently gifted minority students, historic preservation); low incidence (communication systems evaluation, braille mastery); and early childhood (parent education, infant stimulation, early education for Down's Syndrome children).
