This publication provides a descriptive report of 24 mini-grant proposals funded by the Oklahoma Research Coordinating Unit to secondary teachers and counselors. Each report includes: (1) the director(s) and title(s), (2) school affiliation, (3) school administrator, (4) estimated cost of the project, (5) summarization of activities, (6) illustrations of products or examples of materials if any were generated in the project, (7) dissemination activities following completion of the project, and (8) some editorial comments regarding the apparent success or failure of the project. Of the 24 projects, 10 proposed to develop curriculum materials, five resulted in new programs or a new unit in an existing program, and seven others resulted in development of techniques new to the investigators. A total of 18 investigators were successful in reaching their project objectives. It was concluded that vocational teachers and counselors are competent in conducting research and development projects which lead to improved practices in their teaching, and the mini-grant program is an efficient and economical technique for use as a change catalyst. Several recommendations were made, and the major proposal for the mini-grants is appended. (SB)
