The innovations were (1) color keyed instruction sheets, (2) a method of illustrating communication barriers, (3) a method of illustrating difficulty of learning, (4) controlled notes, (5) instant evaluation, (6) time lines presentation of history, (7) getting immediate feedback from class, (8) spiral concepts, (9) an elementary research sequence for vocational teachers, (10) group dynamics, (11) achieving level of objectives, (12) film slides and window shades, (13) jigsawed illustrations, (14) four methods of grading, and (15) item analysis. Results indicated that the workshop participants were planning to use 30.8 percent and were using 58.5 percent of the innovations. Individual ability to utilize 89 percent of the innovations was also indicated. Innovations used by 10 or more teachers were (1) color keyed instruction sheets, (2) controlled notes, (3) instant evaluation, (4) getting immediate feedback from class, and (5) film slides and window shades.
