The ten elementary teacher education models have been summarized to fulfill a two-fold purpose: to provide information about the models to a broad audience of educators and citizens concerned with teacher preparation, and to provide a basis for comparing and contrasting new approaches to the preparation of elementary school personnel. The introduction presents background information on the Model Teacher Education Project, the systems approach, and the essential differences between the innovative models and typical present practices in teacher education. Each of the ten models is then summarized according to the following major topics: (1) Overview; (2) Major Themes; (3) Instructional Goals; (4) Overall Program Organization; (5) Curriculum Design; (6) Institutional Relationships; (7) Innovative Features; (8) Student Guidance; (9) Management and Control; (10) Placement and Follow-up; (11) Special Features.
