The Texas Teacher Center Project: A Status Report.
Virginia Univ., Charlottesville. Evaluation Research Center.
The first section of this report recapitualizes the Texas Teacher Center Project in history. The broad goal of the project is to improve teacher education throughout the state of Texas but, for the purposes of this report, this long-range and generalized goal is categorized into four concrete objectives: (1) changing preservice education programs; (2) upgrading continuing education of practicing teachers; (3) developing systematic cooperation among educational institutions; and (4) providing a communications and a product installation network for continuation of the improvement process. A preliminary analysis of key components of the Texas Teacher Center Project is presented, and the degree to which the components of the project contributed to identified goals is assessed. Detailed program descriptions from five institutions representing major components of the project are included: the University of Houston, Texas Christian University, West Texas State University, the University of Texas, and Dallas Teacher Training Complex. A summary of findings and tentative conclusions complete the report. (JD)
