Emporia Coll., KS.
This report describes a reorganized teacher education program at the College of Emporia, Emporia, Kansas. The following objectives of the program are discussed: a) the elimination of curricular nonessentials, b) the avoidance of duplication of concepts covered in various courses, c) the provision of theory and concepts relative to the teaching experience in simulated situations, d) permission of faculty to function in their specialized areas, and e) development of responsibility in students in the areas of acquisition and application of theories. Also noted are the contexts in which these objectives were investigated: a) courses corresponding to a list of 43 competencies that instructors deemed valuable in teacher education; b) learning packages for each competency which consisted of behavioral objectives, bibliography, slide-illustrated tape lectures and other instructional media, and self-tests; c) seminars focusing on instructional objectives, entering behavior, instructional methodology, and performance assessment; and d) field experiences and simulation. The personnel involved, the budget, and proposed evaluation procedures are discussed. The list of competencies and related courses, an index to learning packages, student self-assessment form, and evaluation forms are included. (BRB)
