Other major accomplishments of the project included the following: (1) initiation of staff and curriculum development in the areas of information processing and principles of technology; (2) formation of linkages between the academic and vocational areas; (3) development of policies for vertical and horizontal articulation; (4) development of a computerized individualized career plan; (5) formulation of a set of goals; and (6) an agreement on the part of all consortium members to continue to share resources and pursues staff development efforts. (Appendixes to this report contain a newsletter published by the Center for New Technology Education; operational guidelines; and a report on the status of the regional delivery system's information processing curriculum, which includes a completed task list, completed behavioral objectives, and draft versions of learning activities and evaluation instruments.)
