Abstract

This booklet describes 14 bilingual/migrant educational programs that have been validated as successful by the Joint Dissemination Review Panel (JDRP) of the U. S. Department of Education. Developed by individual school districts in response to their local needs, these projects are available for adoption by other districts. Some projects receive federal funding as "developer demonstrators" to provide teacher training, materials, and technical assistance to those who adopt their programs. The National Diffusion Network facilitates the exchange of information between developers of successful projects and adopting districts. The booklet contains an alphabetical table of contents, project entries, and indices of programs by category and validated grade levels. The Department of Education can assist in a program adoption only at validated grade levels. Program entries include a brief description, audience description, validated grade levels, requirements and costs for the adopting school district, services available from the demonstrating district, contact person, developmental funding source, and JDRP number and validation date. Two or more programs address the following aspects: adult education, basic skills, career development, classroom management, dropout prevention, English as a second language, individualized instruction, language acquisition, language arts, mathematics, oral language development, parent involvement, preschool education, reading, school community programs, screening tests, staff development, and tutoring.
