To design, develop, and implement an organizational structure for inservice teacher education and provide a continuing program for inservice leadership training in the Northern Appalachia Region for education in the technologies, a teacher educator program was established for training teachers as change agents within a comprehensive "teacher center" program. To alter inadequate classroom procedures and meet other educational needs, instructional improvement was promoted by means of a flexible individualized developmental program which was problem-oriented and task-centered, and which utilized a performance-based evaluation mode of operation. Program assessment included teacher observation in the classroom, pre- and posttesting, participant performance, and open forum sessions. Included among the recommendations of this final annual report is the establishment of regional training centers to handle localized problems. Program materials are given in the extensive appendixes.
