In November 1984 and April 1985, two national conferences devoted to the topic of teacher induction were hosted in Austin, Texas, by the Research and Development Center for Teacher Education at the University of Texas, Austin. These conferences were a part of the center's ongoing research in teacher induction, the most recent effort of which was the Model Teacher Induction Project (MTIP). In conjunction with the MTIP, the center in 1984 organized and has since coordinated a national teacher induction network known as the MTIP Satellite Network. The two conferences noted above were sponsored for the network participants as a part of the network effort. This document reports the proceedings of those two conferences, including conference overviews, agendas, major addresses, synopses of participant reports, and representative comments from the conference evaluations. An overview is also included of the MTIP Network Collaborative Study on Teacher Induction in Diverse Contexts, which was an outcome of the April conference. Following a brief discussion of the MTIP and the MTIP Satellite Network, this report is divided into three main sections reporting on the November conference, the April conference, and the network collaborative study on teacher induction in diverse contexts. Participant lists are included in the appendices. (Author)
