This catalog provides an overview of all exemplary educational programs approved for national dissemination by Department of Education (DOE) Review panels, and introduces the National Diffusion Network (NDN), its programs and services to schools. The programs described fall into two categories: Non-funded Developer Demonstrator Projects and Other Projects Approved by the Joint Dissemination Review Panel. Each section presents 12 projects under the headings: (1) Adult Education; (2) Alternative Schools/Programs; (3) Bilingual/Migrant Education; (4) Career/Vocational Education; (5) Early Childhood/Parent Involvement; (6) Environmental Education/Science/Social Science; (7) Organizational Arrangements/Administration; (8) Preservice/Inservice Training; (9) Reading/Language Arts/Mathematics/Writing; (10) Special Education/Learning Disabilities; (11) Arts/Communication/Technology; and (12) Gifted and Talented/Health/Physical Education/Special Interests. Data on each project is comprised of the title, a capsule summary, target audience, program description, evidence of effectiveness, financial and implementation requirements, services available, and name and address of a contact person. Projects are indexed by state, categorical section, ERIC descriptors, and title. Appendices list 50 projects that were approved by the DOE since the 1981 edition of this catalog, including programs that utilize technology, handicapped children's early education outreach programs, and follow-through projects.
