AN EXAMINATION OF 29 STUDIES REVEALS A GREAT VARIATION IN THE PROCEDURES AND FINDINGS OF THESE INVESTIGATIONS INTO EXPERIMENTAL EFFORTS IN JUNIOR COLLEGE CURRICULA AND INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURE. HOWEVER, THE STUDIES USUALLY DID ONE OF FOUR THINGS--(1) CONSIDERED PROGRAMS AT A NUMBER OF INSTITUTIONS, (2) SUMMARIZED THE RATIONALE AND PROCEDURE OF AN EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM, (3) COMPARED DIFFERENT INSTRUCTIONAL APPROACHES, OR (4) REPORTED ON A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH PROJECT. TWO STUDIES DEMONSTRATED THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TELEVISION AS AN INSTRUCTIONAL DEVICE. ONE STUDY OUTLINED THE METHODOLOGY OF AN AUDIO-TUTORIAL COURSE IN LIBERAL-ARTS BIOLOGY. ANOTHER REPORTED ON A STUDY OF A REMEDIAL READING PROGRAM FOR LOW-ABILITY STUDENTS. ANOTHER CONSIDERED THE INFLUENCE OF CLASS SIZE ON TEACHING EFFECTIVENESS. THERE REMAINS A NEED FOR EXPERIMENTATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF SYSTEMATICALLY ASSESSING THE QUALITY OF JUNIOR COLLEGE INSTRUCTION. (A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE DOCUMENTS REVIEWED IS INCLUDED.)
