This combined teacher guide and student text is written with the broad goal of involving high school students in Bristol Bay, Alaska, in the planning and design of their region's future. Unit I introduces changes occurring on village and regional levels, discusses planning strategies for community development, and presents village profiles for study. Unit II focuses on the history, structure, and function of village corporations and guides students in the application of planning concepts and terminology to current and potential situations facing their own villages. Each unit states objectives, lists lessons in the unit, and specifies instructional materials needed. Each lesson (2 for Unit I and 16 for Unit II) includes objectives for the learner and procedures for the teacher. Background reading material for students is provided. Learning activities for students include setting up a mock village corporation, creating a profile of their own village using video or other media, interviewing village residents, and using and making different types of maps.
