| Abstract: | An inservice course on mainstreaming is provided to 314 teachers in 31 sites in Appalachia via satellite. In addition to media portions, the course consists of printed ancillary materials and practicum activities. Films show exemplary mainstreaming programs and teachers implementing techniques taught in the course. Content focuses on strategies for individualizing instruction and on attitude change. The course is evaluated in terms of attainment of affective and cognitive objectives, reactions to content, format and structure, and technical success. The course will be adapted for dissemination based on evaluation findings. (Author/SBH) |
