The Kansas State Energy Curriculum Institute (KSECI) was conducted for 2 weeks in June 1984 at Kansas State University, Manhattan, and was attended by nine rural elementary teachers from northeast Kansas. The program included the dissemination of energy curriculum materials, field trips, guest speakers, media production, and other energy education activities. Participants were required to develop a plan for instructional change in their own classrooms, to collect materials appropriate for use with their students, and to produce a videotape "commercial" convincing school districts and teachers of the need for energy education infusion into the curriculum. A questionnaire, "Stages of Concern about the Innovation," was used as a pretest and posttest to document program effectiveness. Results showed that KSECI participants gained knowledge and became more concerned about student outcomes and working with others following the Institute. Participants' evaluations of the Institute were mostly positive regarding materials, instructors, and field trips. The major criticism was that there was not enough time to explore materials and topics. (JHZ)
