This pilot program in elementary teacher preparation was performance based, field centered, and team taught. The goals of this program were a) the development of the student's perception of himself as an individual and a professional person; b) the ability to describe the characteristics and conditions for effective learning; c) the design and implementation of learning tasks which were geared to individuals and groups of children; d) the exploration of learning environments designed to promote positive learning outcomes; and e) the design, utilization, and evaluation of various instructional strategies. The program consisted of two phases: Preprofessional Experience and Student Teaching. Phases I and II were supplemented by seminars and evaluations by cooperating teachers, principals, student, and university professors. Phase II presented the performance objectives of the program. (The program's implementation and evaluation are discussed along with recommendations for future programs. The appendix relates the responsibilities of the cooperating teacher, student participant, building principal, and university professor to the program.) (BRB)
