Christine, Emma Ruth American Culture American History Educational Development Educational Innovation Individualized Instruction Instructional Programs Learning Laboratories Learning Resources Centers Librarians Library Facilities Library Materials Library Role Media Selection Program Evaluation Secondary Education Team Teaching To attempt to make learning American history an exciting experience, to sharpen study skills and self-directed learning and to familiarize students with library resources, an experimental sequence of two-week "independent miniunit programs" was established. Eight areas of American life were identified: sports, space and ocean, journalism, photography and films, youth moods, changing lifestyles, United States geography, and music, American style. Materials available on each topic were gathered and learning stations were devised. Working with classroom teachers, students spent one hour at a learning station each day. Progress toward the objectives and student reactions were evaluated. A copy of the evaluation sheet and an outline of the sports miniunit are appended. (SK)
