Based on data collected by way of tests, questionnaires, and interviews in nearly 200 schools, representing a wide range of geography, population, economic conditions, and social history, this handbook is concerned with how schools can be integrated more effectively. Chapter 1 focuses on the school and the objectives of integrated education. Chapter 2 addresses the principles of effective integrated schooling, and focuses on the characteristics of effective integrated schools, and on principles such as modeling, reinforcement, and facilitation. Chapter 3 focuses on integrated education in the elementary schools encompassing such topics as curriculum, achievement and grouping, multi-ethnic teaching, home and school relations, rules and disciplines, staffing, and the principal's leadership. The final chapter focusses on integrated education in the high schools, covering aspects such as the school as a social organization, student focused human relations activities, the faculty and staff in human relations activities, and various factors in teaching in integrated high schools such as curriculum teaching methods, internal integration, and formal and informal integration.
