Implications of the U. S. Office of Education Model Elementary Teacher Education Project for Xavier University. Final Report.
Morgan, Argiro L.
This report describes the revisions and innovations accomplished by Xavier University in its elementary teacher education program, after a year's study of the program models of the Comprehensive Elementary Teacher Education Models Project sponsored by the U.S. Office of Education in 1968. Chapter 1 contains a statement of the ideas and approaches deemed most significant in the program models, namely systems analysis, competency-based instruction, and field-centered pre-professional experience. The strengths of the program models are discussed. Chapter 3 contains a summary of the revision to the Xavier University curriculum during the 1970-71 session, and 47 modules of a language arts component are described in detail. Conferences and meetings attended by the staff are listed. Clinical experiences, accompanied by the report forms completed by students, are enumerated. Chapter 3 contains a brief conclusion to the study and indicates the general direction in which the Department of Elementary Education of Xavier University will move in 1971-72 in the revision of its program in order to prepare dynamic, intelligent, flexible, and well-educated elementary school teachers for the decades ahead.
