Models of Effective Migrant Education Programs.
Mattera, Gloria
Intended to encourage both migrant and non-migrant educators to explore the possibilities of adopting and/or adapting the cited programs or appropriate components into their own units, this volume updates the 1974 description of some of the many programs that have proven effective in serving migrant students. Chapter I summarizes seven programs approved by the Joint Dissemination Review Panel: California Migrant Teacher Assistant Corps, Project CHILD (Comprehensive Help for Individual Learning Differences), Early Prevention of School Failure Management Program, Individualized Bilingual Instruction, Migrant Student Record Transfer System, and Project NOMAD (Needs and Objectives for Migrant Advancement and Development). Chapter 2 outlines five projects selected by the Chapter 1 National Identification Program: Idaho Falls Migrant Program, Individualized Bilingual Instruction Interstate Training Project, Port Townsend Migrant Education Program, Positive Beginnings Program, and Prosser Portable Assisted Study Sequence Program (PASS). Chapter 3 presents exemplary national programs, interstate programs, statewide programs, local programs, and special services (mobile units, migrant centers, staff development programs, and the Oregon Masters Degree Program). Chapter 4 offers suggestions for citizens to become aware of and active in the struggle to improve the education of migrant students. (NEC)
