Federal Programs Supporting Educational Change, Vol. VI: Implementing and Sustaining Title VII Bilingual Projects.
Sumner, Gerald; Zellman, Gail
This report is one of three volumes that describe the second phase of a study that examined the implementation of four federal change agent programs related to education. Phase 2 of the study focused on what happens to local projects in the two largest change agent programs--ESEA Title III and ESEA Title VII--when federal funding stops. This particular volume discusses the complex process of establishing bilingual programs in local school districts, with particular attention to those aspects of the Title VII program and those political influences that affect local implementation. Data for this report were gathered through case studies conducted between April 1974 and May 1976 at 11 Title VII Spanish/English project sites, telephone and personal interviews in 1974 with personnel at 10 state education agencies, and interviews with federal Title VII personnel.
