| Abstract | In the academic year 1970-71, Southern University initiated a program of teacher training for educational improvement. Prior to that time, Southern had been a member of a consortium called the Thirteen-College Curriculum Concept, a concept that stresses involvement of students in their own education, favors discussions over lectures, encourages inquiry and emphasizes independent study. The new program consists of 2 components. The first is a training program in which 50 faculty members participated for 3 weeks in the summer of 1970. The faculty members were exposed to the Thirteen-College Curriculum Concept and developed course outlines and lesson plans accordingly. The second phase was an internship program in which faculty taught freshmen students for 2 semesters. Tutorial programs were initiated to aid the students, and faculty met once a week to assess the progress of the program. Results of the program were clearly beneficial. A lower dropout rate occurred and more freshmen students were designated as honors students than ever before. Continuation and extension of the program are planned. (HS) |
