Abstract	Three components of a conference are reviewed to explore how teaching and learning about Eastern Europe might contribute to European Studies in British secondary schools. A series of lectures provided information about contemporary East European societies and broke down preconceptions of Eastern Europe as a monolithic block. Workshop sessions enabled groups of participants with common teaching interests to construct their own outline syllabi and units of course work. In these sessions, participants stressed a need to avoid generalizations about life and work in Eastern Europe, and suggested themes such as "the peasant" by which comparisons could be made across various states. Sample studies were also seen to be instructive. A plenary session allowed working groups to report on the units they had designed. There was agreement on ideas of integrating knowledge and experience of teachers and learners, and disagreement on the use of "topic" approaches and "general sweeps" of information. A workshop objectives section provides five sample units, including course framework, use of resource materials, and student activities. (AV)
