The major purpose of the summer institute (funded under Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act) was to disseminate information regarding new techniques, innovative programs, and current educational thinking. The theme for the institute was "Contemporary Curriculum for Small Schools." The program attempted to meet the varied curriculum interests of participants with concurrent, small group sessions for administrators, secondary education, and elementary education. Sessions for elementary teachers and administrators were concerned with individually prescribed instruction, behavioral objectives, effective discipline, questioning strategies, and change in reading instruction. sessions for secondary educators dealt with educational trends, behavioral objectives, and the legal process and concerns in school affairs. Major presentations dealt with a new design for rural elementary and secondary schools, individually prescribed instruction, due process, improvement of self-concept, student apathy, reading instruction, and teacher selection and evaluation. Condensations of major presentations, reports of concurrent sessions, 7 papers prepared by participants, and the results of an institute evaluation questionnaire are included in this institute report.

CONTEMPORARY CURRICULUM FOR SMALL SCHOOLS REPORT OF A SUMMER INSTITUTE June 14-18, 1971 Willamette University Salem, Oregon Sponsored by: OREGON SMALL SCHOOLS PROGRAM A Title ill, ESEA Project Oregon Board of Education 942 Lancaster Drive, NE Salem, Oregon 97310 7.7.4 DALE PAR N E LL SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION FOREWORD One of the responsibilities of the Oregon Small Schools Program is the dissemination of information to its member schools regarding new techniques, innovative programs, and current educational thinking. The summer institute is one part of this dissemination activity, but by its nature it is limited largely to those attending. In an attempt to extend its offerings to administrators and teachers not in attend- ance and to reinforce the learnings of those present, this report has been prepared. Its purpose then is to serve as an extension and continuation of the 1971 Summer Institute happenings. Since the Institute had many concurrent sessions, it was impossible for the editor to attend all sessions. Consultants were therefore asked to prepare reports of the sessions for which they were responsible. My sincere appreciation is ex- tended to them for their excellent cooperation in this respect. (There is no report on the evening session which concerned 1971 legislation affecting our schools. This information, Legis- lative is being distributed by the Oregon Board of Education office.) To strengthen the report in some areas and to complete the story of the Institute, several of the graduate papers pre- pared by participants are included. These were chosen for the pTeviously cited reasons and because, in our judgment, they offered material which would be of interest to our readers. A list of all the papers submitted appears near the end of the report. A perusal of their titles indicates the extensive stimulation of ideas resulting from the Institute presenta- tions and discussions. It is my sincere hope that this report will prove useful to all educators in the member schools of the Oregon Small School Program. Donald F. Miller, Coordinator Small Schools Program 111 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Our very special thanks to these people for doing that extra something that helped make the summer institute successful: Irv_Rissell, Business Equipment Bureau, for generously loaning us the 3 M equipment used in the Media Center Mary Covey, Marion County IED, for providing 100 copies of their booklet "The Classroom Teacher and Educational Ac- countability" Wright Cowger, Willamette University, for setting up and main- taining the Media Center Jon Croghan, Baker County IED, and his wife, Toni, who had the audiovisual equipment in the right place at the right time in addition to serving as technicians at the video tape camera Chuck Haggerty and the Oregon Migrant Education Service Center for providing printed materials Art Hearn, University of Cregon, for his help in planning and grading the papers submitted for credit, as well as his longtime work on the OSSP Steering Committee Dale Parnell, Superintendent of Public Instruction, for welcoming our participants even though it made him late for a State Board meeting and for his constant support of the Oregon Small Schools Program Dave Lewis, Willamette University Business Manager, and Bob Schlewitz, Manager of Saga Food Service, for fine facilities, excellent arrangements, and personal services Ron Thaheld and Gl_mWa._,L_drocik, Oregon Board of Education, for their excellent explanation of legislative changes affecting our schools Salem Center #3, Division of Continuing Education, for making it possible to offer 3 hours credit from the University of Oregon Mildred Burchamfor compiling this report of the workshop iv Attendance Honors The following people have attended every OSSP summer insti- tute, beginning in 1966: John Campbell, SuperintendentPayette, Idaho, Public Schools George Fenton, Principal, Pine Eagle High School, Halfway Bernice Payne, Business Teacher, Dayton Junior-Senior High School Jim Putman, Asst.
