  • Toy Lending Library Training Model. Poe, Lillian F. Taglauer, Alice Adults Attitude Measures Attitudes Day Care Centers Educational Methods Evaluation Special Libraries Student Projects Teaching Methods Toys Volunteer Training This study was generated to design, implement, and evaluate a model to train Junior Service League volunteers to operate a toy lending library for use with young children in local day care centers. Each volunteer attended six 3-hour training sessions organized on a performance-based format and taught by the authors. Pre- and posttesting was done on the volunteers' skill in introducing educational toys and the volunteers attitudes toward day care centers. The instruments used were Glen Nimnicht's Pre-Post Episode Instrument and the Semantic Differential on Attitude toward Child Care Centers, developed by one of the authors. The findings indicated that there was no significant pre-post difference on the Nimnicht instrument. The results of the semantic differential analysis showed only slight changes in 11 of the 18 concepts, negative changes in 5 of the concepts, and positive changes in only 2 concepts. Although the statistical data showed little significance, community reception and interest indicated that the study was valuable. (Author/JMB)
