Abstract	EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH, INFORMATION DISSEMINATING ACTIVITIES, AND TRAINING IN RESEARCH ADMINISTERED BY THE OFFICE OF EDUCATION'S BUREAU OF RESEARCH IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF TITLE IV, SECTION 2(D), OF PUBLIC LAW 89-10 ARE DESCRIBED. THE COOPERATIVE RESEARCH ACT, PASSED IN 1954 (AMENDED IN 1966), BECAME OPERATIONAL IN FISCAL YEAR 1957 WITH A FUNDING OF $1.02 MILLION. IT WAS BASED ON THE CONVICTION THAT FEDERAL SUPPORT SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO PROBLEMS WHICH REQUIRE RESOURCES BEYOND THE MEANS OF STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES. THIS REPORT DESCRIBES THE FIRST YEAR'S PROGRESS TOWARD TRANSLATING THE AMENDED AUTHORIZATIONS INTO ACTIVE EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS AIMED AT FINDING SOLUTIONS TO SOME OF THE GREATEST PROBLEMS FACING EDUCATORS TODAY. IT ALSO OUTLINES CONTINUOUS EVALUATION OF BUREAU ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES TO HELP GUARANTEE THAT COOPERATIVE RESEARCH FUNDS ARE INVESTED IN THE MOST PRODUCTIVE ACTIVITIES.
