Surveys of educational needs have revealed an under-supply of teachers trained to teach handicapped students. In 1969 Pennsylvania State University founded a program to instruct teachers in curriculum development and the delivery of services for handicapped students. Since the aim of the program was to develop a model to deliver such instruction to large numbers of teachers in remote areas, a mobile computer-based laboratory was selected as the mode of delivery. This paper discusses the project from three perspectives: (1) the funding agency; (2) the central administration of the University, and (3) the operating unit. (EMH)
