Supporting performance objective 74 of the V-TECS (Vocational-Technical Education Consortium of States) Secretarial Catalog, both a set of student materials and an instructor's manual on transcribing from recorded media are included in this packet. (The packet is the first in a set of four on performing stenographic activities--CE 016 974-976.) The student materials include two learning activities, a test, and the instructor's final checklist. The instructor's manual includes notes to the teacher and keys for the test letters which should be recorded on cassette tapes for student learning experience. The materials are designed for self-paced individual instruction and may be adapted for use with large groups. (A separate booklet--CE 016 911--lists contents for the four packets in this set along with those in several other sets--seventy-eight packets in all--based on the same V-TECS catalog.) (JT)
