This coordinator's handbook is designed to give necessary information and guidance to the person responsible for coordinating a training course based on one or more units in the Determining Instructional Purposes training package. Although the role of the coordinator resembles the traditional roles of instructor or consultant, it is not identical to either of these. This is because the coordinator, and all training participants, will be working with a set of fairly self-contained and complete training materials. The training units are designed for school decision-makers involved in planning and managing instructional programs, that is, people who need to have basic skills in "purposing" as well as in managing others in the performance of the functions covered in the training. The units can be used either with existing school personnel or with prospective teachers and administrators. The training units cover setting goals, analyzing problems, and deriving objectives.
