The Instructional Support System for Occupational Education (ISSOE) Instructional Planning Project was intended to develop procedures for identifying successful instructional materials, suitable for teaching specific ISSOE competencies. A form was developed for use by teachers in reporting materials they were using in their classes with success. Two workshops were held at which teachers were trained to evaluate instructional materials using the form developed. Resources guides were also compiled that contained pertinent information on teacher-identified curriculum products, teaching strategy, and existing evidence of successful alternative applications. A retrieval system was then developed for use in accessing basic academic skill and technical skill materials for vocational education. Articulation with related ISSOE projects centered around sharing of project staff, integration of activities with field test and dissemination activities, and coordination of presentations regarding ISSOE projects. The project was evaluated by an informal project review committee, the ISSOE Coordination Committee, and workshop participants who provided feedback. (Appendixes, amounting to over one-half of the report, include the Instructional Materials Reporting Form, Retrieval System Coding Forms, and Retrieval Systems User's Guide.) (YLB)
